Hi everyone. Are there any usual meets that goin in or around the Swansea/Carmarthenshire area? I know there's a few cruises but not Skoda specific ones.

Oh my days. Loads of views, no reply's. Come on even if its only a few of us. Think how good your vrs's will look against my 9 year old 1.4, ehh? Aye? Interested?

Simon

well we managed a Yeti Adventure up in the Elan Valley a couple of weeks ago, but there was only 1 other Welsh resident on that, and he was from near Brecon, and I haven't got a Skoda yet.

Does seem to be a lack of active BriSkodaista's in Wales!!

Awesome thats progress. Yeti's are a funny vehicle. Never knew they did soft roading trecks

Well done for organising that, would've loved to seen it. Got any pics?

I have a nice little on-road route that goes from Rhayader, through the Elan Valley, to Cwm Ystwyth, down towards Lampeter, then over the Abergwesyn Pass either to Llanwrtyd Wells or passed Llyn Briaane to Llandovery. Beautiful scenery and some very challenging tarmac!

Might be down your way tomorrow. Probably going to look at the demo Yeti at Sinclairs.

Ahh right cool, yeah sinclairs is 20+ miles from here. Yet to go there, I'm sure I will for some parts sooner or later. All the best with the demo yeti

Note: See south wales thread in welsh meets. Thank you

I am in Newtown llanigraham - only just up the road! There seems to be loads of Skoda around mid wales but not many owners on here? :S I was tempted to organise something around mid wales but wasn't sure how many people would be interested!

Try doing a mid-wales thread and see if anyone reply's. Bit of a treck but why not come along to the south wales meet we're trying to organise?

Richard

Plenty of Skoda's around us, but how many on the Forum? Most seem to be driven by old farts like me!!

At least you can't miss me. I've only seen 1 Yeti in the area, and that was a white one going through Newtown.

Simon,

Thinking about it, but it is 90 miles and a 2 hour run. Might see if I can fit it into a visit to family in Cardiff.

Hi Graham, yes there are loads of skodas around I don't know why they are not on here! I find this forum invaluable now a days!! I will keep my eyes peeled for you - I often drive towards Llanfair Caereinion for work, so in slightly the opposite direction to you! I drive a green skoda octavia estate. My father also has an Octavia - MkII though in grey I have just brought him round to buying Skoda again! He originally got me into them!

Yes Simon it is quite a way from South Wales, we too have family in the south and it often takes 2 hours + to get down there! If there was a meet around Brecon and I could see myself travelling that way.

The only meets I have done are at Cosford with the Skoda Owners club. This happens every May. that is about an hour + from me though!

Why not take a step up North?? Loads of meets up here.

Will have to keep my eyes peeled for the next meet - cheers for letting me know Jon

no worries, will get something sorted soon for a brisk meet in N wales, go for a good run round Snowdonia and that.

Oh dear, we have gone off track. North wales? No thanks can we get it aa bit more central for people. North wales is certainly not.

Castle Combe must be only 70 or 80 miles for you? Less distance than I am travelling, and very Skoda specific meet up. [see sig ]

Confused. I am very stupid! Umm so has the welsh meet now been transferred to castle combe track day? Man I should really stop smokin green. :'(

Depends if you want to drive some decent roads. What's an hour drive for awesome roads which the central just doesn't have. Since i've been on this forum there hasn't been one successful Brisky meet. :'(

You've obviously never driven the Abergwesyn Pass road then, or the Elan Valley lanes, or the road between Llanidloes and Machynlleth!!

Very true Although you need to avoid the A483 if you can!! That is truly awful - but there are many roads that aren't!

Yawn!! Thats why evo magazine come to North Wales and gave the Evo Triangle its name.

I've recently moved to Talybont near Aberystwyth. Is there any interest in a meet in the region?

I'm not too far from you - regularly go over to the coast at the weekend. If Llanigraham is interested and a few others then we could sort out a meet. There are loads of Skodas around mid wales yet not many of them seem to be on here!
