So loose plans are:

Fri 1st May: South England to Mid Wales - staying in Builth Wells
Sat 2nd May: Mid Wales to North Wales - staying in Betws-y-coed
Sun 3rd May: Tour North Wales - staying in Betws-y-coed
Mon 4th May: Tour North Wales - staying in Betws-y-coed
Tue 5th May: Head home

Some will be heading straight to Betws-y-coed on the Saturday evening / Sunday morning, others will fuss around with trailers.

Either way, let's see what happens...

yes we fixing on those dates now. Sunday 3 May the main day, where hopefully we will have most of the cars. Come and join us for whatever part of the trip you can.

Routes for the south to mid Wales to north Wales on My Route app Club section now. Have a look and see where you could join us, other wise join us in North Wales. I will add routes for North Wales shortly, got drafts setup, but they need cleaning up ready for publishing.

I've moved these to the 2020 folder [mention]GraemeW[/mention] and changed the dates - just to avoid confusion.

I think it's myself, Graeme and Ian doing this leg so far. Should be fun Nick. I'm looking forward to doing a bit of Brecon Blasting!

Holyhead is working out the best option

Nigel, [mention]GraemeW[/mention] has a WhatsApp chat group going for Welsh Weekend.

Maybe see if he can add you in 'cos I think one maybe two others are looking to trailer too. You can probably get more specific hotel details / parking details from folk on there.

I know others registered for the last (cancelled) trip in October, but if you add your names again if you can make it. If anyone needs hotel details then let me know.

Answering previous comments
KarlV Myrouteapp updates. Thanks
Sir Nick joining us on route up. Wales has great road all over. It would be a shame not to drive them. Only trailer when you have to, eg motorway
NigelS WhatsApp group. Yes I will add you shortly
