Just gauging interest if anyone is up for doing the Caffnack meet up again up at the Ponderosa cafe on the Horse Shoe Pass?
:drive:
Ok, I hear you thinking - "What's a Caffnback?"

Well, instead of going to a pub...a CaffnBack is were you go to a caff and back!

To a good cafe called the Ponderosa in North Wales, amid some great roads (Horseshoe Pass, etc) and spectacular scenery.

I was thinking of going through Frodsham and Helsby then driving down Queensferry to Hawarden way and taking the back (twisty) roads through the trees rather than the motorway before crossing the Llandegla moors and turning left at the roundabout with the cider farm to make our way up to the Ponderosa cafe, before dropping down the horseshoe pass into Llangollen. Might even try and find the country park (think it's called Ty Mar?) with the perilous walk across the aquaduct before heading home along the same route in reverse and stopping to pick up some cider

I've got a bit on over the next month or so, but should be able to fit something in before the end of the year if there's an interest.
If anyone is interested please put your name down here.

I would also be interested, so long as it is not a "sprint" event (FRM 2014 :rant: )

Andy, The runs based on public roads and the Ponderosa is a public cafe & car park - I couldn't stop you (or anyone else for that matter) from just turning up if you wished to come along on the day :broon: :drive:

Would be good to see you :)

Great news Ben, I'll have a 'Number 2 wash' while I pop in for a coffee.
Don't forget to dry the door shuts, but leave the tyre blacking off please :broon:
