Sunday 28th Aug Welsh Run

Post by billz »

Due to the little interest and the previous run clashing with a lot of folk being away. Me and Taffzee have decided to do a run out on the Sunday 28th Aug. This is around the North Wales area and includes going round the Evo with a lunch stop by the sea. If anyone is interested then can you confirm asap so that i can book the Lunch stop and decide on times.
This is the route Taffzee has put together. A big thank you to him.

Jim has reserved 10 places for lunch at the hotel. A three course meal is only £12.75pp
So if anyone is still interested hurry and get your names down as there is only 2 places left out of the 10 and we will have to see if we can reserve more seats.
So all you welshies who moan about runs here is your chance to drive on some great roads with fantastic scenery with some really good company.

Would be good to meet up again Steve. You could always drive over and stay at the hotel Taffzee posted earlier in the thread. Have to admit there are some good roads again :D we might even take it steady this time :D :D
Let me know as soon as you can incase we need to book more places for the lunch.
