Just to help finalising the lead in to the Welsh Meet N Greet, if you are coming, please vote in the poll.
If there is sufficient demand, I can do a lead in from the North on Friday afternoon from J11 on the A55.

Just to qualify, i will be meeting the Irish contingent from Hollyhead on the main ferry of the day that the majority should be on. This will involve a pleasant ride out from Tan Y Gaer, for anyone wishing to join me. Details of this will be posted in the details thread that Tanygaer has started.

I must have missed something, has Wexman changed his Valk out for another 1800?
You would be more than welcome to help with the routing Redwing, you can ride up front with me to keep us going in the right direction.

I hope you will be on site early Saturday Lakelander, we wouldn't want you to miss the fabulous ride out that Tanygaer has mapped out for us!!!!
Actually, riding into the venue at the crack of dawn (or before) is a good idea, as it beats loads of traffic and makes for a much quicker run. When I go up I leave home at 4am and have a fast run through from here below London.

Lakelander, Tanygaer describes the route exactly as I remember it and should be good to get you there. I leave Croydon at around 4 am in the morning and am having my first cup of coffee at around 09.30 on the stone wall outside David's kitchen door. I would add that the speads that I achieve might get the attention of Mr Brunstrom's boys in blue, you probably should add an hour to that journey, plus I am usually in the van and don't need to stop for fuel, on the bike I need two fill ups at higher speeds!!!!
