Zzzz... Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Hello guys I might be able to go, (depends on job commitments, and a possible business trip on Monday.... ) but definetely like the idea... this is lazy from my side, but can you make a brief summary of the latest plan rather than trying to read all threads and figure out the latest decisions... The meet: Where it starts, time and date? The Drive: (Maybe same as previous one you did last year?) -Approximate times for the whole day event: -Do you plan a "pre-meet" the night before? or do most people make their way in a single day. -Also Is there a "post meet", if the drive finishes late? -Could people meet/join at half way points in the drive? sorry lots of questions... i'll stop now.

Below are the details from last year, i think it will be the same as last year. It took up most of the day and we all stopped back at the meeting point at the end of the day which if i remember correctly was about 17.00. We add a quick coffee then everyone went their own way back home. Some people are meeting the night before at a local hotel but i dont know which one. Hope this helps its a great day out with great scenery and with a very nice lunch in Bala, and many admiring glances . 1) Follow M56 to end, then hang a left onto the A494 towards Mold (via A5117). 2) Follow A494 past Mold towards Ruthin. 3) At Ruthin stay on A494 towards Bala. 4) A494 comes to end at Corwen, turn right onto A5 then left at next lights onto A494 to Bala. 5) At Bala, pull into the car park next to the lake and have a nice break (hopefully wtih some nice autumnal sun! Coolio) 6) Walk back 2 mins into Bala and grab some lunch at the same place as last time. 7) Take the A4212/A470 over the moors to Betws-y-coed (cracking road last time, nice and scenic). 8) Take A5 back out of Betws-y-coed then take the B4501 towards Denbigh 9) At Denbigh, then follow signs for Ruthin on A525. 10) Make way back up the A494 towards M56. 11) Cruise home via M56..... Meeting location and time: Roadchef Chester Services, J14 M56 9am (will wait there for a while etc) http://www.roadchef.com/locations/chester.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 As Digsy said, you need to start later this year so you get to Bala later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beavis Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 As Digsy said, you need to start later this year so you get to Bala later But up to press that as not been decided yet and these are the details of the last run out. Final time will be decided on in due course, but i would not expect it to be any later tan either 9.30 or 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Final time will be decided on in due course, but i would not expect it to be any later tan either 9.30 or 10. I never got there till ten last year. We left about half hour late and was in Bala well before twelve which was too early. Gives people a chance to get there if they are coming from far away like I was hence me getting done by the fuzz on the way . Just a thought thats all.....

If we decide 10 then some people may not turn up until eleven because they decided to leave their homes too late and in doing so drove to fast because they did not leave enough time for the journey.....hence then stopped by the fuzz for speeding wasting even more time.

I think 10's reasonable. We have to rely upon people not taking the p1ss and turning up much later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
