Guest Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 Got to Evesham from Holyhead and instead of getting in at around 4 pm, I got there at 7 instead. Along the way I managed to take a wrong turn, sit in a Welsh town listening to locals speak Welsh (I am told by my Welsh brother-in-law that they only do it when a stranger is around), and ofcourse meet Dan who kindly came all the way from Nuneaton for a few mile ride together. Unfortunately we could not meet at the arranged spot so we ran into each other (well, he found me) at a small village crossroads which had the road closed and no diversions in place.Anyway, we rode for a short while and stopped for a cup of coffee and a chat. For those that have not met him, let me say he is a very nice chap and I enjoyed meeting him. Dan went on his way to Nuneaton and I carried on to Kidderminster and Evesham. I have included some pics on the ferry, where surprisingly I was the only biker, a sandwich stop in Wales in Conwer and coffee stop with Dan. Nice pose Dan Quote
chrisgatguis Posted April 26, 2009 Posted April 26, 2009 Sounds like a good trip Mr. Goat..You were carrying quite a bit, were you camping somewhere? Quote

Nice pose Dan Could have done a few miles with you if you were on Anglesey at 7pm.Yep we speak Welsh only when there are non locals around.....and of course we're always talking about you! Where did you stop in Wales? A55 at Conwy with the castle or down the A5 at Corwen? The A5 is a nice run when you know the road. Quote
