Bristol/South West => AGM Convoy

Anyone from the south west driving up to the agm on the Saturday, could meet up before hand and all drive up together??

If not could meet at the AGM and convoy back home together ?

Hey buddy…

you might be able to help me… here is my scenario…

I am travelleing via Fishguard ferry port on the friday morning, land in about lunchtime. Do I head up the coast via Aberystwyth, Shrewsbury, Telford - Uttoxeter…

Or should I head to the M4 and then M5 route to Uttoxeter, mainly all motorway. Google maps is saying about the same in time but motorway is 70 miles longer.

Would love to convoy up with a few others…

What would you do? :dontknow:  :dontknow:

Cheers Hugh.

Ah fair enough rich most people seem to be heading up in the Friday anyway, could organise a convoy home on the Sunday though ??

And shughy, you will have more chance of meeting up with people if you take the motorways but depending on what time your landing in Wales you will have the Friday commute traffic through Swansea, Cardiff, severn bridges, Bristol and Birmingham, at least if you go up the coast route like you said at least you'll be able to join the M6 after Birmingham so I would personally go that way but it all depends on what time you're travelling  :dontknow:

Cheers Scott.

I land in Fishguard at 12:30.

What's the coast road like? Is any of it dual carriage? It's an A road so is that in and out thru villages etc?

Cheers Hugh.

umm im not sure to be honest ive never been over that far but most of the a roads round here are single carriage way going through towns/villages etc and when they pass through more rural areas become dual carriage way and national speed limit, but like i said ive never driven that far west  :dontknow:

there are a few welsh guys on here that might be able to help you a bit more than i can
