Nice 270 ish miles today.

Check out Aberdovey - 16 July on Relive! https://www.relive.cc/view/v1vj73jL3JO

Ive mastered the way there, but still cant figure out a different way back north of Shrewsbury. The ring road is so busy, and full of roundabouts 😕

Encountered a group of dangerous riders on the way there. Overtaking on solid whites on corners, on narrow roads. Sh!t scary to see. I held back and let them go. Don't want to get tangled with that lot.

Lovely ride back. Deliberately took a small lane, that led through woods and moorland to come out at lake Vyrnwy. Didn't expect to come up behind a shepherd moving his flock 😆

Bob, do you live near Ellesmere? That were right posh.

The middle photo (of the lake) is called the Mach Loop , where UK and US airforces come to do low level training . It is possible to walk up to the top of the hills each side of the road and watch the jets pass below you . Plenty of videos on Youtube of the Mach Loop . :tup:

It's good there! I haven't been since 1980 something. And I love a nice lot of downhill bendys.

Beautiful pictures, as always.
