Welcome to the first of the regular Central Region South Wales meets! As the title says this will take place on April 3rd and will basically consist of a drive over some of the finest roads we have to offer followed by a pub lunch.    

Meeting point is Asda's car park, just off the A465 at Dowlais top, Merthyr Tydfil at 11.00 am (Please see below for directions from the M5 or M4 as appropriate).


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 an 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.



Retro is the way forward.....

John,

It will be the first Sunday of every other month for the moment starting in April. The idea is to build gradually and to work around existing shows/events such as Gaydon and Donnington. If this proves to be successful and we become well supported down here we will make the pub meets a monthly event.

Cheers

Steve
