Keith W Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 Hi All, I will be taking pretty much the same route as last year. Leaving Solihull at 6.00am and via Bridgnorth, Shewsbury, Oswestry, Llangollen, Corwen, Llanrwst, T|al-y-cafn with a stop for breakfast. Maybe one of the Welsh contingent could suggest a good cafe just inside the border , could also be somewhere to meet up for the final drive in. Malcom E it might be a bit of a detour for you to meet up on route seeing as I am coming from the opposite direction but hopefully others will be heading south west.

Enjoy the GTS, Keith. On 01/05/2018 at 07:24, Nail it said: Yes going once again as it's a nice day out Was thinking about going up Saturday to the Porsche track day ?

Keith W Posted May 17, 2018 Author Share Posted May 17, 2018 Hi Dunc, Have not got your number either. Are you sure you can get out of bed that early lol.. Ok so my plan was to leave around 6ish and do M42 - M6 - M54 - Telford - A5 - Shewsbury - Oswestry - Langollen - Breakfast Possibly Country Cooks LL21 0PT (opens 8.30) - Corwen - Evo Triangle, Heavy policed now so slowly, you will have to stay in 1st gear and tickover.. - Llanrwst - Tla-y-cafn - Llandudno (not particularly in any rush to get there at 10ish. Can meet at some point on route as you will be doing M1 - M6 I guess or I can drive slowly until you catch up, so that won't take long... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Fagan Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Be sure to drive responsibly over the Welsh Border. I saw about 20 plus Police motorbikes fueling up at Mold Shell station today, some were unmarked superbike types. Looks like they're showing a presence over the weekend as there has been several fatals on local roads recently ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith W Posted May 21, 2018 Author Share Posted May 21, 2018 Great turn out and great drive there with Duncan, stopped off for breakfast at Country cooks Tynant and ate there again on the way home, it's that good. Thanks to Hanna HA11NNH for pointing us to the Evo triangle as we missed it last year, amazing bit of road with great scenery if you manage to take your eyes of off the black stuff for a second. Travelled back part way with Dunc but unfortunately my Cayman S doesn't have the factory fitted Warp drive button that the GT4 has. Great day , great people, great cars. See you at Simply Porsche.
