Syncros at Llanfihangel

Post by max.karisma »

What a brill weekend :D It was great to meet you all and thanx for making me so welcome :)
As a passenger (for Aiden) the greenlaning was excellent (wellies definately needed :rofl ) and I now realise a larger kettle is needed for roadside repairs!!!
Has anyone got photos they could possible post up?
Look forward to seeing you all again, Max 8)

considering some idiot driver was beating her with large chunks of wales she did fine, but one front outer cv died, and the silly headlight washer reservoir got mullered and one colway holed 2" gash and 2 end caps and some dings and scratches,
one good thing though the sunroof opened again and I can fix the broken bit it looks like :ok so may stay tintop
I only have a few pics will try and get them up soon just need to sort some easy free hosting other than brickwerks which played up on me last time I used it

Is this Llanfihangel near Cadair Idris? Are there more photos? If there is ever another meet there I'd move hell and high water to make it. :!:

Cadair Idris is just about my most favouritist mountain in G.B for hill walking. I think I'd cream myself if I could drive it as well :) Does someone have the routes marked down? Was it here? http://maps.google.co.uk/?ie=UTF8&ll=52 ... 1&t=h&z=16

We were guests of another off-road group but now have the information of tracks etc so that an 'offical' Syncronauts weekend can be arranged in the future.

We camped at SH 991 493.

As Doug says we were invited by a certain syncronaut from Oxfordshire who shall remain nameles to accompany his local group who made us all most welcome and led us a merry dance across a fair chunk of North Wales, adding to our knowledge of the area for a future event. I'll be replacing my bluetooth gps however after one too many hissy fits, why it works fine with the phone but not so with the laptop is beyond me :roll:
The LLanfihangel was the one with the nice pub, the Crown, that's where the syncros camped, an excellent welcoming sleepy spot for future reference, doesn't do food, very friendly :ok

there's only one picture with the wellies before the battery ran out :shock:
