Evening Groovers

Anyone got a delightful E2E route for Wales? Offa's Dyke is irritatingly footpath for much of it.

Got a route from Llangollen to coast (going N) but would really like the bit from Bristol north to Llangollen or thereabouts.

Many thanks

Paul

Off road? Have a look at my mate Dave's Welsh Coast 2 Coast Route.

Can be done in one go, or as a multi-day trip. I rode it in 3 days with a couple of mates this year. Great long weekend of riding but still challenging. Can split it in to more days very easily though.

Gents - legendary - you have just saved me a week of evenings.

Not entirely sure about doing it in March and from south to north (thinking prevailing wind). 3 days should be a bit of a monster.

Many thanks

Paul

Could be worth Googling Dave Buchanen's Hobbit's Trail, he did top to bottom and back (offroad)earlier this year for the Guinness Book of Records.
