Title: Holidays in Wales (Bala)
Post by: SteveD CB500K0 on July 31, 2014, 08:32:04 PM

My good wife and I (plus Springer) are off to a cottage near Bala for a week in mid-August.

Any of you around that area?

I always make a point of hooking up with a fellow member when I move out of the Thames Valley...

Recommend a good pub and a free beer is on offer!

Steve

I'm by local standards not that far off. I guess about 50 miles or so. Often seem to be up there with work lately exploring the lanes on trail bikes. I rarely go up north west otherwise. Great biking roads. Lots of history interest.

So are you up this end now, or been already? I'm wondering if I can talk the other half into a day out. Mind, that means dragging along the kids.....

I can do a ride out, but on the ntv, I'll be adding photos of my project 500/4 soon, the rust fairy has eaten a fair portion of the rear subframe. I plan on the 500/4 outfit being on the road for christmas, oily rag resto.
