Rideout today was up North West to the Lleyn Peninsula.
The day started well
,
Up the A487 Dolgellau,road was still a little damp but clear skies.
Joined the A470, stopped off at Coed Y Brenin Bike Centre for a quick paned.
Lot of expensive mountain bikes,some of them cost more than my bike.
Very nice though.
Carried on up North,next stop was Llyn Mair Maentwrog,a very picturesqe place so took some photos.
Oh no you say that bloody blue bike again.
Took a jet ski on there once and got chased by the National Park Warden.
Back on the road and headed for Prenteg just outside Porthmadog,went over the top to Cwm Ystradllyn also very nice and took a pic of the old slate mill there.
Back on some A roads and headed for Pwllheli via Llanystymdwy A497.
Next stop was Aberdaron,very windy today but lovely scenery and nice beach,oh yes took a pic of Hells mouth on the way as well.
Didn't stop at Aberdaron cause the dark clouds were looming
Took a pic of Bardsey Island,plan to go there one day.
Was planning on a quick getaway but stopped at a cafe nearby and got chatting with an old Rally mate, it was nice to catch up on old times but the clouds had circled above,
Quick getaway but to no avail,tried to dodge them as much as i could and did rather well until i got to Porthmadog but then the heavens opened.
I know that Wales is God's own country but when that guy needs a piss he sure does on hell of a big one.
Oh well nothing to do just carry on,kept on twds Dolgellau and the sun came out.
Took some quick pics above Dinas Mawddwy and headed home.
Drying out tonight, thank god for the Raeburn but not the fwkin rain.
