Superb pic's, great scenery, looks like great fun.

Unfortunately I keep forgetting to take loads of photos.

My weekend started with the first decent run on my FJ1200.

Set out Sat morning from Northwich on my own, sun shining, quite warm for the time of year. Head for Nantwich, Whitchurch then across towards Wrexham, cut off to Ruabon then Llangollen (no petrol stations both closed down :angry: ) up the Horseshoe to the Ponderosa WHAT A ROAD :D .

Back down into the town, cross the river (found fuel about 5 miles out of town), head to Bala, straight through to Dolgellau (toilet stop). Barmouth for a burger & a coffee, by now it's cold & windy, up the coast,watch the speed limits, plod pulled boy racer in his Nova :unsure: by Ffestiniog absolutely pi$$ing down, stop to put on new waterproofs (XL my @rse, or perhaps I'm a XXXL :blink: ) decided to give Betwsy a miss, chase back to Cheshire through the rain. Not a bad run.

Sunday started a bit grey, Mick came up on his Speed Triple, over to Warrington to meet Gaz With his Blade.

M6 north, Windermere, Ambleside for lunch. Ambleside to Keswick another good road it would be a great road with a better surface, too patchy. Across to Whitehaven, rain again, down the coast road. RAIN I've never been out in weather like it since I was a lad :( back across to the M6 & head south through 3 lanes of standing cars & wagons.

Over 600 miles in 2 days, freezing cold, soaking wet, tired, aching all over, was it worth it, YOU BET IT WAS brilliant weekend. :D
