Go down the A494 and across the forest on the B5105 into Betws and head for Capel Curig and avoid the A55 altogether, not much in the way of time difference, and as far as I know, no road works..

I can confirm that there are no roadworks along that stretch - have been working near Nantgwynant this morning - picked up race pack afterwards. Had a little run from Nant Peris to Llanberis and back - there was a nasty headwind on way back, which would make the Llanberis Pass climb even harder

Look out Snowdonia, here we come, hope to see some of you there.

Good luck to every one, hope its not to wet.

On well Kwaka, that's about the time I was driving-you should have a clear run but you'll still need to slow down through the roadworks. I got to Anglesey in plenty of time.

About the roadworks.. btw.. I've blocked the idea that the Nant Peris - Llanberis bit may be harder than anticipated..

So are we saying that its best to avoid the A55 then? I know last year when I tried to get home along that stretch after the end of the race it was absolutely awful

I wouldn't have thought going back on a Saturday would be too bad PF - it is normally Sundays which are bad - as are Friday nights - "visitors" coming in and going back. I wouldn't have thought tomorrow morning would be too bad.

A55 it is then, Thanks John. usually a 3hr drive to Llanberis for me, but hopefully slightly less leaving so early. I shant be leaving until after a good breakfast on Sunday morning!
