Who's up for driving the EVO triangle and some other fine roads in North Wales

It's being done on the friday to help make sure that the roads are clearer than they would be at the weekend


Meeting at Chester at 10.00am - Meet Point to be advised.

Then off on a tour of some of the finest roads North Wales has to offer including the fabled EVO triangle.

The route will take around 4 hours and we will be stopping for lunch along the way.


For those with sat-nav: I will be providing itinerary files of the route, so if you can PM me with your e-mail address and sat-nav type I'll send you the file,
I can do TomTom, Garmin and Navman

This event is being organised by JonSpiderMan from AOSW

UPDATE

Meeting point be here by 10:00am
Meet point linky

The Route

The latest Route avoiding road works

PM Jon if you want him to send it to you

Mooney Re: The North Wales Run - AO does the EVO Triangle

Tom Tom, Sav Nav, Bah.

You'd be lucky to get a phone signal in some parts of Wales.

Bring plenty of bread crumbs

Or a long bit of string.

When I went to Colchester to buy the Alfa the guy asked me "did you bring a sat nav or map?" to this I replied "no" then he said "how are going to find your way home?" As I had gone by train and then he picked me up from the train station.

I looked up for the sun and asked him what time it was and then said.."I live over there" Got in the car and drove off....
