I've never seen llanberis Pass.
Scenery, castles, seaside and a bun ticks all the boxes for a run out from Manchester when the snow clears a bit.

While I'm daydreaming about a route - does one direction provide a better experience of the pass than the other?

riding.gif riding.gif Can you do week day?

If a few are interested I can stick something on the Rideout section - don't tell Pikey obviously :mrgreen:
I don't usually organise stuff because I get called away at short notice.

I've done it in a car a few times, as a variation off the usual A5 route to Holyhead. And on a school trip to a slate works near Llanberis a long time ago.
Be good to do it on a scooter, so I'm keen Mark!

And as long as Pikey supplies the Wagon Wheels! :kiss:

Get him to post the wagon wheels beforehand just in case we accidentally happen to miss him at the ponderosa on the day due to unforeseen circumstances ;)
