We're looking at doing some of the roads to the south and centre of Wales.

The plan is to meet up in Ross on Wye Thursday morning then work our way to Carmarthen. We're going to stop at the Boar's Head for a couple of nights. No plans yet for where we're going to be on the Saturday but probably on the western coastline. Then head home on the Sunday.

Not sure you could have picked a better spot to stay. The roads around there are very probably the best in the UK.

I'm leaving mine at about 9.00am.

I'll probably do the A449 to the meeting point.

Thursday we're riding to the Boars Head in Carmarthen, which is about an 8 hour return trip from your house.

I've not looked at the routes and as far as I know we've not made any decision yet where we'll be going on the Friday, so the only option would be to meet up at the hotel before we set out.

If you've got to get your daughter at 2pm that doesn't give you any time.

I'll be driving in my car through Camarthen on Friday afternoon hopefully (weather dependant). I go through there quite a lot. Watch out for the fuzz, they're crafty down there. I've seen cop bikes on bridges with radars on the A477 the other side of Camarthen, it's an easy road to lose concentration and speed on.
