seatzie

what you on about NAR? OP asked for "best route to Bangor from Ballygalley"
so it starts in Ballygalley

and there is a Newtownards Rd in Bangor its how you get to Ards from Bangor so what are you on about? step 20 11.4 miles drives you from Sydenham into Bangor through Holywood........care to reconsider?
