All looks pretty awesome. We're hoping to make a trip to Snowdon next summer. Did you all drive
over? Whets access to the area like by train with bikes, any idea? Did you stay over in Snowdonia?
Cheers

Snowdon's closed to bikes during the Summer. We rode it two days after the Summer bike ban lifted.

Yep.

No idea. It's pretty remote - the closest large town is probably Bangor.
Quoted message said:

Shaun stayed over with his wife. The rest of us headed our separate ways.

Holy [censored]!
There's still a set of Spinergys that aren't delaminated/shattered.
Nice pics, although they do look stereotypically like the UK.

Right, didn't know that. Do you have the dates for start and end of the ban? Just did a quick Google
with no luck.

Nope, it's a good thing. I'd like to see a similar scheme running on Skiddaw. During the summer
months, when the ban's in force, there is more than enough daylight for a dawn or dusk run when
you'll encounter less walkers. Everybody wins.
Of course, dynamiting the damned railway track would reduce traffic on the path even more, but
that's another story. There is no truth to the rumour that I have a copy of the Anarchist's Cookbook
and a sketch map pinpointing likely sabotage sites.

Where were those pictures at the vending machine taken? It wasn't Pen-y- Pass, was it?

On the west side of the Pond. Specifically, the Puget Sound area for me...

And so did I. I was alluding to the extreme difference of meanings, in jest, of course. Kinda like
the British and American interpretations of being 'knocked up'.
