A Boxing Day ride around North Wales

[Dellis]

Set off from Sandra's house in Crewe this morning and went for a jaunt into Wales. Crewe - Wexham - Llangollen - Bala - Barmouth - Betwys-y-Coed and back home, made a pleasant change from a Boxing Day festering in front of the TV but it was rather chilly.

Taking a break by Bala Lake

Agitating a heat pad - no heated grips on the back

The heat pad

A salty bike

Mind that kerb!

salt

Quick get it back to the dealers, I`m sure you`ll have a mark on it

It's seen plenty before and it'll see plenty more

Betwys e Coed looks busy. Looked a good run out

Was going to go myself but my Kawasaki was cowering in the corner due to the salt

Bloody foreigners, come over here with dirty headlights then look the wrong way when crossing the road

Should have gone for it. Roads were nice and clear if a bit slippery.

Looks like a good run out Dave. I think I have seen on here where someone had a set of Oxford heated grips on the rear rack of a 1200 for the pillion. May be worth it to keep the lovely Sandra happy.

All the best to you both for the New Year mate. See you in Donegal.

Hi Aidan,

I'd seen that too. I showed Sandra the thread who wasn't keen due to her extreme dislike of the 1200's grab rail ergonomics so she uses her heat pads

Cheers
