I'll have a look at routes then, see if there are other routes about.

In all honesty I don't mind a gentle ride out if the roads are going to be busy.

The Police often have big high profile campaigns at this time of year and North Wales has a bad rep for being anti biker.

Remember the MCN campaign a few years back where 20,000 bikers descended on North Wales and brought it to a stand still as the old bill were being extremely anti biker and harassing any biker they could regardless if any offence had been committed or not.

Hopefully things will calm down, and if were sensible we have nothing to worry about anyway ;)

Scan reading is a bugger. I read 'behinds' as 'bellends'. Good tight knit forum this ;)
