tour reports » A lap of Wales

Domestic situation meant that I was only going to be able to get out for a ride on Good Friday, so I made the most of it and rode a round Wales, or should that be around Wales? Either way it was fairly close to a lap of Wales, 760 odd miles in 17 hours, 15 on the bike.

I visited the most Eastern, Highest, Northern, Western and Southern point of mainland Wales (accessible by tarmac).

Bike was brilliant, most of the roads were brilliant, the weather was brilliant, the scenery brilliant. If anyone is interested I'd be happy to post more details when I get a bit more time. The RS is truly a great bike :-)

BTW the route maps isn't quite accurate, my trip north from the Brecon Beacons went westward sooner than shown and missed the Shropshire Hills.

Oh and despite the improved performance the Hilltop tune hasn't impacted the fuel consumption negatively, I still managed better than 46mpg including the blast home on the M4 at, ahmmm, 80+ on satnav (90+ indicated)

A bloody good day out that Jason, well done.

Just spent 4 days zig-zagging about inside your blue line, mostly sandwiched between the A465 Heads of the Valleys road and the A44. We did about 600 miles over those days, much of it on single track roads over the mountains rather than around them.
