One to think about
I have named it "The Three Castle Valley Run" - What do you think???

Starting Point

Llandudno West Shore Car Park (Good start point RAC used to used it for their rallies when i was a lad!!!) From here we move off towards the town centre (Gloaddaeth Avenue) and then towards the Great Orme road.... A 6 mile stretch of fun (I used it many a time as a 17yo) and then out of the town West Shore side again and onto Conwy.
Over the old bridge and Castle 1 is reached. Through the single lane road we turn up onto the Sychnant Pass.... (Great fun again) Over the pass and down to Penmaenmawr. Through the village onto the A55.
A55 (boring bit 8 mls) to the Tal-y-Bont turn and head towards Bangor, take the signs for the old Suspension Bridge onto the Isle of Anglesey (Ynys Mon). We head then to Beaumaris for Castle 2 point and a well earned break......

Engines restarted its off towards the new Anglesey Bridge and over it head towards Caernarfon (A487?), decent fun on here and then into the town and a small break again now we are at Castle 3.....

Moving on the final stage (The Valley bit) we head towards Llanberis, towards Capel Curig then towards Betws-y-Coed.
Into Betws and we cross over the old bridge in the town and head on that fab B road towards Trefriw. On from Trefriw we cross over the Conwy river at Tal-y-Bont and then back towards Llandudno on the A470....

Into the town on the A470 - A final flourish at the Lynx roundabout we turn right and head towards the main Promenade..
A cruise up the prom back to Gloaddaeth avenue and returning where we started at The West Shore Car park....

What do you think? Let me know if so for the future.... It could be fun

Well it sounds to me like you have done it already and described it brilliantly , so why not organise your own run and post it up in the forum. This one is covering some of the roads for the April meet so I know they are good

I take it you are not coming on this one
