A May Day weekend away in the Motorhome with the dogs.
Staying at Hendre Mynach campsite in Barmouth for three nights.
With our Lhasa Apso dogs in the dog trailer on the back of my ebike.
An 18 mile cycle ride on our new Raleigh Array e-bikes. Over the wooden Barmouth Railway Bridge.
Cycling the Mawddach Estuary on the Llwybr Mawddach Trail to Penmaenpool.
Lunch at the George III, back to the Min y Mor for tea-timers, and finished off with a beautiful sunset.

Thank so much for your vlogs. We have learned so much. We are on our first proper road trip in our Motorhome ‘Billy’ And we changed our plans to stop at Hendre Mynach. It’s a great site and we have just done your ride to a George III and having a nice pint in the sun right now! Cheers we would have never known About it without you.

We’ve never crossed that bridge! All the times we’ve been to Barmouth too. We loved your cycle route, that fall looked nasty though!! We loved the look of the pub. We have been by there, by accident following the Sat Nav to Barmouth, took us across that rickety wooden bridge with a troll on it (and he was a grumpy troll!!). You guys have such fun days together. Loved it 🍻

Thank you! We crossed the bridge at Penmaenpool many years ago in our T4. Wouldn’t fancy it in Helga 😱 I do keep dropping my ebike 🤦🏻‍♀️ Struggling to get used to how heavy it is! We love a good day out, as do you two 🤪 Cheers 🍻

Job’s a good ‘un.... and the Slaws on t’ut Tour is a good ‘un, too! 👌👌 Another enchanting little episode of your entertaining Mayday getaway in ABERMAW (to use its local lingo moniker), and I see the predictable (NOT !!) weather did a fine job at keeping you on your toes. 🤪🤪 Mrs. S’s ‘war wound’ souvenir from the Mawddach riverside trail looked nasty, but hope it looked worse than it felt and soon mended. The recurring musical backdrop manages to be repetitive, while remaining complementary and without being annoying. And the lovely day ride up to Penmaenpool to watch the Qualifying (glad to see you have your priorities in order 👍👍) was rounded off by your very lovely ‘sign-off’ to the gorgeous sunset backdrop. Cael hwyl ac iechyd dda on all your adventures. (= Have fun and good health) 👍👍

good afternoon mrs slaw,, was delighted to receive your reply to my initial comments, thankyou, i also have an e-bike ( chinese 1000 w 48v motor kit fitted to a used mountain bike,, tis a really easy way to tackle the hills & inclines in worcs area),, nb.> the doggy chariot on mr slaws bike a superb idea , noticed the red flag on back to warn the schumackers approaching from behind,,----- looks like mr slaw & self like the ice-cream ,, used to be lyons/walls when i was little , in meantime,, i will certainly keep an eye out for new releases, your mc500 motorhome is a far cry from my ex p.office combo van !!! but good thing with m-home is you can go where you choose & you dont have to faff about booking lodgings hotels etc ------ happy trails to you both // neocombovan08 //

Oh the nostalgia. Your choice of music as you cycled along the estuary track was lovely. I had a lump in my throat. We have walked the full length of that track and back, starting from the car park at the other side of the toll Bridge. Lots of geocaches along there. We always stayed at the Afon Rhaiadr Country House. Rhaiadr Wnion, A494, Dolgellau LL40 2AH A beautique hotel that we visited at least 6 times. We often dined at the Cross Foxes Inn. Thanks for taking me on the ride with you, I enjoyed it very much. 😊 xx

Drone footage superb, like the legs down sign on the dash board. Slaw top tip!!! we don't have legs but need to retract the step though so might plagiarise your sign :-) Great video

Hello Mrs Slaw and Slaw I’ve been watching you vlogs for a while now but thought I needed to go back in time. I’ve been watching the ones where you show the seat covers (brilliant idea with the socks Mrs Slaw), the outdoor dog tether, the outdoor panels - can’t remember the correct name for these. Now I’m watching your Barmouth trip with the e-bikes, sorry about your fall. So my list is growing of what we would like to get for our van but one thing I would like to ask is why you have a shelf at the back of your van rather than a bike rack. Sorry to go on but I would like to say thanks for all your tips on Motorhomes and sharing the equipment you buy. Right all that said, I will leave you in peace because I need to watch Day 3 in Barmouth now 😀😀🍺🍷

OUCH Mrs Slaw! That was NOT supposed to have happened! I felt that - I did the exact same thing the first time I went out on an E-bike too - mine was an Trike though - they are bloomin' heavy! We like Towyn and Barmouth too. Bought our first m'home end of 2019 - so it's our second year with a m'home and travelling cat - our first with bikes! Not brave enough for abroad yet - please convince us to give it a go.

Hi Christine, yes it hurt! I’ve also dropped it again recently 🤦🏻‍♀️ It is very heavy compared to my pushbike and it’s taking some getting used to. We’ve motorhomed all over Europe pre-vlogging. We would highly recommend it. Hopefully we’ll get to S of France in September. But if not, as soon as we are able to. You’ve got some great memory making ahead of you. Enjoy 👍🏻
