I can't make it. Don't have too much fun without me.

I cant make it now either.....

what was supposed to be a 5 minute job has turned into 2 hours of swearing at my bike....
I think Kawasaki spot welded the oil filter in place, as it rounded off when trying to use the correct tool to undo it, refused to budge when hit with a screwdriver.. and now is in a state of chaos ! and where they have placed the oil filter on this bike means that you can get no other tools near the damned thing.... so going to have to strip the bike to attempt to get the filter off.. hence why I cant go tomorrow :(

i shall be drinking beer.

not sure what time i'll get there though, depends on which train i manage to get. most likely i'll be getting to cardiff central at 7:45 so i should be at the pub at about 8.

I don't have much of an excuse this week, with not being at work so...

I had a quick look at the link, have I been here before?
How easy is it for me to find considering I never get lost as I always follow the bike in front and chances are I'll be making over the bridge on me own?
Whats the parking like (how big a chain should I bring)?

Finally, if I do come I better not be the only one on a bike.

you might have been. i can't remember.

bikes can be parked in view of the windows so prob no need for a chain.

Mr Hunter...
I shall be in Cardiff and attending the said venue, but not at any time before 7pm.. or much before 7.20 to be honest !
I will be engaged in a game of 5 a side until 7ish near Leckwith..... wrong side of Cardiff.. but its easy enough to navigate around the outskirts of Cardiff anyway... give me a PM, and if you need guiding in, I can attempt to navigate for you... just pick a meeting spot.. and NO ! not on the M4 !

Right, Going from the map (cheers Zombie) its shouldn't be to bad... I will be leaving Sunny Swindon around 6ish so aiming for a 7:30 arrival. VB I would meet you somewhere, but I have no idea where anywhere is, so I'll just see you there.

So apart from this, are there any other ride outs, like on weekends, perhaps going from Cardiff area towards the cafe on the promanade at Porthcawl where everyone seems to gather these warm summer nights? Maybe worth arranging one for a Sunday or something in the future?
