Have come up with the following idea.

From Birch services, take the M60 (clockwise),  exit on the M56 past the airport, stay on the M56 to J11, take A56 through Frodsham & Helsby, take a slight detour (A5117) to Chester services for P&T, back to A56 to Chester, B5130 alongside the river Dee, cross A534 to continue on B5130 around Wrexham, A528 & A539 to A5 at Ruabon, A5 to Llangollen, A542 to Ponderosa cafe.

Michael's your man 
Here's one from last year to be going on with though.

Shame you can't join us simbo. Maybe next time or when we do the Dumfries & Galloway trip or a.n.other. Never mind the photos, who's going to be the resident pi$$ taker ? I suppose the others will have to take it in turns.

Looks like Michael's going to be busy.

We've done all our PP&PtoPPPP, time to sit back, enjoy the ride & pose for photographs, while taking the pi$$ over fuel consumption comparisons between TC's & LC's.

Looks like you've got the weather. Ride Safe Guys & watch out for low flying top boxes. Enjoy.

If I've read the post's correctly.....I'm now the tour photographer and entertainment!!!  I'd be better staying in work as I'd do less work and have less stress.



To keep safe from from low flying topboxes it maybe best to put K9DOC as REC, But its the wildlife I feel sorry for.......We'll check his bike at the end of each day for sheep. Now one of those would block up his fancy radiator guards.

No risk of exploding tyres, I've have it on good authority, that they have been replaced with Dunlop's finest, (although not approved by BMW).

Not Approved!!!! Start of the slippery slope. Givi could be next on list.

Let the pi$$ taking commence

Regarding top box, now firmly attached with BMW branded blue-tac, so no danger there.

Regarding sheep, the only ones at risk are the ones that find their way into Michael's bedroom overnight.

'Rebel with a cause'

PS Have 3 Givi boxes lined up and waiting should the unimaginable happen. No danger though with the blue-tac mod.

You had to lower the tone K9doc... bringing bedroom talk into it TUT TUT

Hope you took your wellies!  :)) not :silence:
