Re: Its Back...Tour de Snowdonia 2023
I'm interested, especially if I can find a track day at Anglesey to cap it off again.

Ive also just noticed that clicking those route links in the first page do not seem to have saved my route alterations to give us the good roads, rather it just has taken us to the destination via quickest route. I shall redo and screenshot instead of links over the weekend.

Google maps does that which is a psin but if you use the Google my maps instead you can save the routing. It’s a tedious process plotting the routes as you have to use both programmes.
At least that’s what I found plotting the NC500 and last years Snowdonia tour route.
