Clio200.net Autumn 2014 Wales Run - Blacks & Beacons

[dajones]

I have put this up on Clio197.net Cliosport are more than welcome to come along,

Details are as follows

Sunday 26th October 2014! @ 09:00am​

Where:
Merthyr Tydfil Leisure Village
Merthyr Tydfil
CF48 1UT
United Kingdom

Quite a few places to grab a bite and fuel at this place, other the last few meets we have all sat around with a breakfast before we head out on the drive.
I think a good plan would be to go out on a drive, then sit down for food somewhere to get chatting.

So i could either look for en-route or if we all head back to Methyr and have something after the drive. Will have to let me know on preferences.
I'm going to get a map up in the week, we will be in the Brecon beacons and black mountains, about 200 miles of the best roads in south wales, as featured on that tv programme we all love (or hate).

As a bonus you get absolutely breathtaking scenery for free!!! Will stop on the horseshoe for pictures, videos, a few drives up and down.

There is a Travelodge hotel at the meet point if anyone is coming from far and needs an overnight stop.

If you could make a list below if interested then i can transfer across to the other forum.
Will be good to see everyone there before the cars get shut up for winter

Think I saw you few months back Alex by castle bingo in Merthyr. I have a LY 182 too.

Did you pass a LY on the back of a recovery wagon near Merthyr too? As a LY 182 overtook us on the bypass. The recovery guy thought the car had fallen off the back for a second!

 

[msremmert]

The annual Cliosport Honda meet. Now we're taking!
To be fair I went to this meet last year and a few folks on the PH forums came so there was all sorts there.

Plus I made a few actual friends while I was there who I still see often today so I'm quite looking forward

Ystradgynlais.

After paying for 2 refurbished Renault pumps to be fitted, both failed. Couldn't face another potential **** up so went to Dan sjm yesterday and got brand new ren pump and genuine full idler, tensioner and belt kit fitted too.
Dan knows his stuff and car is spot on now.

Need to get my alignment done again though. Think I knocked it out on track kerb
