I'll let the pictures do the talking for now :wink:

This is fantastic! Most of my family lives in South and West Wales. My mother was born in Marloes in Pembrokeshire. I lived in Cardiff for a bit before moving to London. I love Wales more than anywhere on earth. CYMRU AM BYTH!!!

Beautiful rigs btw...

Damn that looks fun. I visit every year since moving to the states. I do not have a truck there but have access to one if need. Was actually planning on walking/camping the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path in 2018 but have done sections of it in the past, so I may decide to explore the north a bit more instead :)

When did you move to the states? That's my dream, has been for as long as I can remember.

Pembrokeshire is beautiful! I'm hoping to get up to Scotland early next year for a whole month of sleeping under the stars.

I moved here when I was 20 so, 22 years ago. I spent a good amount of time around Kyles Bute west of Glasgow and wow, beautiful area… Most of Scotland is beautiful to be fair though. You will have a great time no matter where you land.

Lucky chap. I'm 25 now and still haven't found a way of being able to move there. Now find myself as a company owner & home owner, so for now I'm happy here, maybe one day I'll get the chance to make the move.

If your next over this way & want to explore the northern part of Wales give me a shout, always happy to get exploring [emoji51]

Thanks for sharing the photos of your trip; since this is now posted on the "Share your Overland Routes" would you mind sharing more info on the lanes you did and what software you are using for navigation? Txs

Will you be hitting the Scotland 500 by any chance?

Sure thing!
Although I don't know the names of all the lanes I've done. I've used an app called 'GPS OUTDOORS GREAT BRITAIN', usually used for walking!! But it's perfect for recording where you go, it shows you the mileage covered & a blue line follows you so you can redo the lanes whenever you like and find them easily. I also like the fact you can pause the recording so if you stop for lunch it doesn't use battery & follow you round whilst your cooking or something [emoji5]



You can also use it like an OS Map, but pin point locations too which is great for me.
