Uk G2G

[ChrisG]

Right, I've Tomtomised it a bit.  Seems that Garmin like to mark up every road junction, while Tomtom's work better if you mark the road you want.  

 

Dave, are there particular points besides the seafront at Aberystwyth (25 on this map) and the Owls Nest Diner (40) that I need to check are ok before I put the Tomtom file up?

cracking job Chris,

 

re Aberystwyth and Llandovery location points, no there are not any in particular, ice cream stop and owls nest respectively I guess

 

thanks for your efforts

With this being such a popular G2G, I hope we're doing the route in small groups. We don't want to cause panic when 30 Carpadiens arrive at a cake shop :cake eating: . 

[drobinson]

Add me to the list please "big dave" and also mrs midiman. Will be b&b ing it though .thanks

Don't worry, last time I went to the Owls nest we had Sidestand Junior with us and they still had cake left over when we'd finished.

Thanks. It's much better. Works on my ONE.

Think I'll just follow someone

BigDave will you downgrade my status from 'probably' to 'probably not'

[AlunL]

If there's 30 of you, it may be worth letting Ian at Owl's Nest know... They often have groups of 10 but may not be ready for you lot. :cake eating:

 

I'll be on Snowjoke and we'll probably be there on the same day (in a smaller group) and eat even more cake.

Top job Chris, thanks. :good:

Is a SatNav going to be mandatory for this ?

 

Or can I just keep up with the rest of the crowd ?

[Studley Ramrod]

I'm printing off a copy of the route BD put up, scribble the road numbers and cake stops on it and away we go.

Just keep up with the group T, if i'm leading it it won't be fast

[ChrisG]

Or just head straight for the Owls nest and see how many cakes you can scoff before the rest of them arrive.

 

 

Personally I hate riding in big groups so like to have the route in my satnav so I can go at my own pace and meet up.

That pace being like sh*t off a shovel.

[ChrisG]

I probably only rode about 1000 miles last year, and so far this year I've done less than 100.  I'm slower than a 3 legged donkey and probably about as wobbly.

[Studley Ramrod]

Welcome to the club Chris !   I'm on about 200 miles for the last 18 months, nearly dropped it at 0mph yesterday.

[peronne]

I do a fair bit of miles but it makes no difference. I wasn't anything special at 16 & after all these years I have progressed to higher standard crap orry:
