Well done to Steve for making this his first long ride with the club after buying a new PX125 ! Exactly the same as last year ,the weather forecast was all doom and gloom ,but just the same it was an over the top forecast and apart from a few early spits and spots it remained dry and cold for the whole trip . Six "chester "scooters left macdonalds ,Mold ,with eight club members ,for the run via St Asaph to Abergele where over seventy scoots came together for the event .This years route went inland from Abergele through the hills to Llanfair T.H. and on down into the valley of the Conway via Llanwrst ,up to Betwys-y-Coed for the lunch break .The return route back to Conwaywas supposed to cross to the far bank andreturn via Trefriw.Due to confusion when Chester scoots left to refuel the other sixty odd scoots followed (nobody likes to be left behind !!)and the wrong road was taken by the rideout! Chester s.c. followed the planned route ,now alone,back via Conway ,Llandudno prom ,Colwyn Bay ,back to the finish in Abergele! It all made for a good laugh when we walked into the Nomads pub they were trying to sort out who in their club had messed it up ! Sorry lads ! An uneventfull ride back from Abergele via Rhuddlan ,Dyserth ,Lloc ,Holywell ,with acold wind in our faces (Steves bringing more clothes next time !)ended a ride of close on 135miles for those from Chester,well done all .Theres afew more photos I will pass to Graham to post for us and Ithink steve took some to.
