On the 22-4-17 I'll be doing the Sunrise to Sunset ride.

The idea is to ride to Lowestoft on the Friday. Stay in a Travelodge and have a few shandys etc. :lol: Then get up in time to see the Sunrise at 5:57. Then back in the Hotel for breakfast etc and get ready to ride to South Stack lighthouse on Anglesey to watch the Sunset at 20:23 You have 14hrs between the stops. Google reckons 6+ hrs so theres plenty of time for stopping etc.

Then another BnB and plenty of Chilling out before a gentle cruise home on the Sunday..

There are no fees it's just the Hotel/BnB and beer money. However I will pass the Hat for a donation to the Air Ambulance if you can spare something. Total distance is 360 miles. There are 2 routes, one is across country, The other uses Mways.


If anyone wants to Join in let me know.

Pick up the A5 it's great from Wrexham onwards the old coaching road from London to Holyhead .Can pick it up in the Midlands go most of the way on it .Go over the old bridge to Anglesey if you can at least one way .

Hmm sounds good, I too are a fund raiser for the Air Ambulance, and it just happens I'm on leave from work that week.
I will pencil it in my diary.

No there will be a start point and a end point with some stops on the way , so some may get there before others but we can all meet up in the end ,
