Absolutely unbelievable number of bikes!

If the rider of a white '08[?] Road King which showed a Jap cruiser a clean pair of heels on route to the Ponderosa on the A550 from Hawarden is reading this - good show. Nice to see a late tourer can move, just made waiting for mine that little bit harder.

Seeing this Electra Glide in the Pondarosa carpark didn't help either. I just gotta get me one of those air filters. Just beautiful!

Good to see Mog, Cheryl , Ruth and the others (crap at names me) Gilrs had seen enough motorcycles to last them a Lifetime so I guess I just had to count myself lucky they agreed to tag along as far as they did.
What and amazing sight though. Hope all got home safe

Betws y Coed was rammed, didn't see any members at the Swallow Falls but with the number of bikes there it ain't surprising.

Re: Mcn reclaim wales - sunday 13th september

Got to Swallow Falls about 5 o'clock. As you say, sod all chance of finding anyone!

Makes me laugh that the coppers were showing their presence, but were no where to be seen when some knob and his mate in their white chav chaser starting revving it outside th entrance to the hotel. Whilst both swigging stella artois, they lurched forward at a great rate of knots as if they're were playing chicken with the pedestrians/bikers.

Not sure they'd still be so full of themselves if they'd have knocked someone - would have been removed from their vehicle rather quickly by the large crowd of onlookers.

And no-one gave 'em a slap? Shit, what's the biking scene coming to?
