For Chester, if you're not taking the A483 (which is meh) I'd just stick with the A470 (which is great) then pick up the A494 (which is also great) at Dolgellau. That'll take you through to Chester
Your next problem is getting from there into the North of England without going on a motorway. I suppose it depends where you're heading but there isn't a good way (I take a very slow motorcycle to the Dragon rally in North Wales from up North every year and if there was a good way without going on motorway, I'd use it). Might land up being best picking up one of the Mersey tunnels, going out through Liverpool and cutting up to Preston on the A59.
I can tell you now, it's a long ride. Longer than the distance would have you believe. Either start early or take 2 days.
EDIT: I also once went up the A5104 juat after the A494 crosses the A5. Tricky to stay on but goes all the way to Chester. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
I did the 2010 Round Britain Rally on my 350 Bullet. 89 landmarks, 3 months, 9,500 miles. |

The road signage seems to be pretty specific.

Interesting post from andy-uk.
The pedant in me says that you are not a driver, but a rider.
The cantankerous a-hole in me notes that if you get your A1 then on a 125 you don’t have to display L plates so in theory then you could ride a special road
Having just been out for a 50 mile run the ‘biker’ in me says anything but the A55. |
