Well me and a few mates went on a little road trip up to North Wales for Drift Matsuri.
The event was due to start at 6pm on Saturday, so we planned to have a scout around for the awesome roads Wales has to offer..
Went up and drove the Evo Triangle, it was scenic but i didn't think much of it as a drivers road, especially the MX5, i found it far too bumpy and straight.
We ended up making our own triangle of roads, which turned out to be awesome, right through the National Park as well! I have a GoPro video which i'll upload at some point.
Definitely planning another trip up there soon, for now though, some photos.

Is that a map of the Evo Triangle? Ive been round there alot, and a map is no help. The crest/dips catch you out so easily.

Mine is a lot cheaper, i'm on a multicar policy with my brother and parents also.
My VTR is £900 and the MX5 is £600 a year, and I'm 20 if that helps.
