I'm off to Anglesey Circuit on Friday for work, and was planning to do Evo Traingle and others there and/or on the way back. This looks fairly close so may have to pop in depending on time.

This is a great place. They do tours there, and while the experience is a bit sterile as everyone is kept in a tight group and allowed access only to few designated spots due to security, it was fairly interesting still. The tunnel network inside the mountain was very impressive, if memory serves me right they've mentioned there are 8 miles of roads there, and proper roads they are, two lanes, junctions, traffic lights. Huge halls carved in a rock, all the sorts of high-tech machinery and men in white protective suits working on something, at some moments I felt I was at a Bond film villain's facility. Certainly recommend a visit, well worth the asking price. Lots and lots of stunning roads around as well.
