B4391 near Blastau Ffestiniog is a must. Pop into the Bala lake whilst you're there, it's nice for a stop.
Agreed - rode it last weekend. A lot of fun.

Did they accept the code in store?

Kreiga are awesome, you don't need bungees with them - 4 straps attach to your subframe and it hooks onto them. I've literally just ordered 2x US20's to go with my US30 for a 70 litre tailpack
That's not too bad then, I'd never be able to get my leg over the bike with a box on though
My friend says its going to be a push to fit both Snowdonia and the north in with Brecon Beacons and the south in just 2 days with 4 hours ride to get there and back. But said since he's basically got an arm chair (GS), he's up for doing it lol

My arse is going to ache something horrible. No sheep jokes please.
We're going through and planning the route next weekend. In the meantime i'm planning video and luggage.
Camera:
I'm testing out the contour that Clov!s has kindly sent me and have my eye on the Git2 camera.
Luggage:
Thinking Kriega US30, but security is a worry, i'd have to carry it around with me potentially.
I've looked at Givi tailbags as they can be padlocked at least, but they're not waterproof so you have you put a cover over it, which is supplied but a pain.
I've looked at a Givi top box, but it will cost me around £180.
I'm open to suggestions.
I'm going to go for just a top box or stretch for a pair of panniers.
Quick question:
How much does it affect the handling/drivability of the bike? And how does the top box differ to panniers in that respect. The top box being higher up and further back compared to two panniers either side and lower down.
I honestly don't feel it but obviously it must have some effect but nothing noticeable.
The weight "limit" on top boxes are tiny but you can put a lot more in them. My old monolock like the one youre looking at was some silly like 3kg. My monokey one is 10kg I think.
