Do like that Black Tulip TC coupe. If we weren't so deep into the Limeflower one now I'd be sorely tempted!

Got my mag today, great read again :thumbup: Yes, that TC coupe is rather tempting! I like that the nats will be along side another car show, the Devon nats was awesome with all those trucks :D So, North Wales! As if the planned route won't be challenging enough, I have to drive through the valleys to get there! :lol:

You could always leave The Principality M4, M5, M6, but not as much fun though!

Principality, nation, country, take your pick :lol: Yeah, I'll be taking the route through the valleys, some amazing scenery that way. Some roads have cliff edges so high either side it gets almost dark in places!

Portmadoc better be on the itinerary! Always had a great fondness for North Wales, stayed in a delightful village near Rhyl over christmas a few years ago.

The new magazine has a good outline of the route. Tony Miller is the man with the plan.

Its a bit too far mileage wise.
However.... if this one goes well then in the future it's a possibility... though a little remote for the access for the rest of the population!

How far is it mileagewise?

Being North Wales, I was wondering if we can encourage some of our Irish brothers and Sisters over? With ferries running into Holyhead and Liverpool.

I'll be honest, I have slightly ulterior motives.

The Ffestiniog Railway and Portmerion and Marinas would be three of my favourite things all rolled into one.
