WHAM Day Ride – Welsh Railways
June 9 @ 8:30 am - 5:00 pm
WHAM Day Out – Welsh Railways.
Leg 1: Starting at the OK Diner in Leominster (please fill your fuel tank here), this route winds its way through the familiar Shropshire Hills and onto the epic Crossgates / Newtown to the Welshpool and Llanfair Railway cafe for our first coffee stop (60 miles).
Leg 2: We then skirt Lake Vyrnwy and Bala riding some of North Wales’ best roads through Snowdonia (watch your speed!) to the Tan-y-Bwlch Café on the Porthmadoc to Blaenau Ffestiniog Railway (57 miles).
Leg 3: The ride back follows a similar route to the ride out (it seems totally different this way round..!) until we get to Penybontfawr where we head for Welshpool and then on to Bromfield for a cuppa in the Ludlow Farm Shop Cafe. (90 miles)
From Leominster to the last stop is a total of just over 200 miles so its a full day out. If you cant make it for the whole day then you are very welcome to join us for just part of the route.
Please arrive at the OK Diner at 08:30, groups will leave between 08:45 and 09:15.

All riders are reminded to check the weather forecast before each ride. If the temperature falls below 3 degrees please remember that the road temperature can be lower and there will be a risk of black ice. In addition heavy flooding and high winds add considerable risks to motorcyclists. WHAM will not normally cancel rides due to weather conditions so it is up to each rider to make their own decision whether it is safe to ride or not.
