I could be up for a Sunday bimble as long as I'm home before 4pm?

Sounds like a plan, I fear it will be extremely busy. Any other suggestions?Lutin said:Phil said:

Yeah, I assume that the Ponderosa would be very busy too - with Saggy Arsed Power-Rangers all out for a Sunday bimble, dodgy overtakes, getting the line wrong through corners etc etc.
Could always pick a random layby and bring your own sandwiches?
Which is why I suggested mid-week originally.
Have to have a think.......

We could make it mid-late morning to avoid the crowds, there is a little motor museum just outside Llangollen that I've never visited then could have a backroad bimble to avoid the masses, maybe a wander over the Pontycyclle (or whatever its called) aqueduct?

Where are you staying Tony, Anglesey?
I'll not get away until around 6ish, not sure the Cafe at Whitchurch is open until?
There is a pub called the Leigh Arms near Weaverham that appeared to have a bike night when I was passed - maybe a bit far for you?
Other than that, a chippy in Rhyl?!!

We're in Bangor - so on the mainland and minutes from either the A55 or A5.
Don't really know any "biker" haunts as I've lost touch - been in Ireland 10 years now. Gulp!
Whitchurch (Shropshire) would be about 2 hours away and Weaverham (Northwich) about 1 hour and 40. Don't know either place at all.
Rhyl's only three quarters of an hour. Don't have any recommendations for a chippy.
We'll probably be out all day and could end up nearly anywhere, to be honest. I've always wanted to go and have a look at the Pontcysyllte aqueduct, so could end up there.
There's a few possibilities, at least.

I'm not really up on bike meets in N wales (other than Ponderosa)
Rhyl, Whitchurch & Llangollen are all about 1hr15 for me.
