Touring changes for 2023

[Doctor T]

All my plans for a long German trip has gone out the window. My niece is getting married in May but she lives in Gibraltar. Mrs. T is flying and riding down there . Am setting out a week before and taking a nice long ride there. Last time it took me 4 hours just to get through the Spanish/Gib border. Cheap fags and booze. Shame i don't drink
Then in June am visiting an old cousin that i have seen for about 4 years. So that will be a trip up to Snowdonia. The good thing about this trip is he's a biker too and knows all the best biking. Not looking forward to the boring motorway miles to get there

Just hit the "avoid motorway" button on the sat. nav.

I can travel up the A5 but it will take too long, stopping and starting in traffic

[Glenn]

Try the A41 to M40/M42, M6 to M54, then A5.

[Doctor T]

Yes, that was my route planned but i hate motorways. I try my best to avoid the in Europe as well

[Glenn]

If you don't mind the time taken, then maybe try something like https://goo.gl/maps/j7aQ2TEBRk5wEwn6A There is a motor museum on Moreton in Marsh to break the trip.

I avoid motorways like the plague

Takes me 8-9 hours to get to Wales when we go

[Doctor T]

Am now going to do a sleepover on the route up and back. Funny in France i don't mind doing 8/9 hour stints
