Here are the final details for the forthcoming Welsh meet in July!
Meeting point is Asda's car park, just off the A465 at Dowlais top, Merthyr Tydfil between 10.00 and 10.30 am (Please see below for directions from the M5 or M4 as appropriate).
For those who want an idea of the route and want to look it up on the map it is as follows
Starting off we head west down the A465 to the Hirwaun roundabout and onto the A4059 heading north through Vaynor Penderyn and over to the A470. We leave the A470 and then head west on the A4215 to Sennybridge then joining the A40 heading west to Llandovery. Once through Llandovery we head north east on the A483 to Builth Wells. From Builth Wells we head south on the B4567 running parallel to the A470 and joining it at Erwood. We follow the A470 down to Brecon.
As for our final destination we have a couple of options.
1. We can go to a country pub as per our previous meet.
or
2. There’s a common in Brecon that allows you to park cars on it, possibly for a picnic, sunbathing etc?
What do you all think?
Directions to the meeting point as follows
Those coming from the Midlands, Worcester etc
Leave the M5 at junction 8 and head west on the M50 to Ross-on-Wye and on to the A40. Follow the A40 past Monmouth and through the tunnels and in a few miles you will come to services. Leave at the junction just after the services and head for Abergavenny on the A40. Once you get to Abergavenny take the A465 and follow all the way to Merthyr Tydfil. When you come to the roundabout at Dowlais top you will have a Texaco garage on the left and Asda’s up on the right, which is where we’ll be meeting.
Those coming from Cardiff, Bristol etc
Follow the M4 west and leave at junction 32 at Cardiff. Then follow the A470 north to Merthyr Tydfil. Go straight through the next roundabout is at Abercynon staying on the A470. At the next roundabout you want the third exit heading for the A4060, this should take you over a flyover. At the next roundabout take the third exit so that B&Q is on your left, then go straight on at the next roundabout. Follow the dual carriageway all the way up around the bend and straight on at the next roundabout. Continue all the way up to Dowlais top and you will come to another roundabout and you will see Asda’s right opposite you.
Finally, can I ask that you note the following points.
1. Sheep and horses roam freely near some of the roads that we will be using so please exercise caution. I know all to well from bitter experience the damage livestock can cause to a car, ask me about it on the day!
2. These roads are popular with bikers, so can I please ask everybody to be extra observant.
3. I noticed that on the last two occasions I’ve travelled on the A470 there have been speed camera vans so I ask that we all be sensible.
Any problems/queries feel free to give me a call on 07815 965608 or 01685 370898 after 6pm, or e-mail me on steveestebanez@hotmail.com
Cheers
Steve
