Its a beautiful sunny Sunday morning and the sun is quickly drying the dew that is covering my tent and the grass. I so enjoy my ground coffee made in my travelling drip cone and am eating rather disgusting chocolate hazelnut filled brioche type croissants. Feeling frazzled (I wrote that but can’t remember why) and then rode off on part of one of the Bikers’ Britain routes. But first to visit Portmeirion, which I know as the film set for The Prisoner which I watched on TV in the late 1960s and then later bought on DVD. It was such a clever series. The place was heaving with tourists from far and wide but it hassuch a good mechanism to deal with large numbers of visitors that it feels pleasant and uncrowded. I took very many photos. The place is highly photogenic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then after a couple of hours I carried onward in a westerly direction on the BB route, but it was disappointing. There were lots of cars and the going was slow. It was a Sunday afternoon, afterall. I reached Abersoch and, in a busy seaside resort, found a parking place just for me and sat watching the sea and people sailing boats for a while. The estuary is so shallow that I saw one boat being towed out by a tractor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
