Im living here over the summer with the gf as I have no where else to live.. I know.. how romantic! ;)


We are right by the Black mountains, which is a great ride, so if anyone wants to go for a blast and show me some new roads around here that would be great! :smt048

Also, is anyone from around here going to AR09?

Im in cwmtwrch (i think thats how its spelt) Its meant to be raining very hard tomorrow mind? Again, tomorrow is no good, but Sunday is if you are out and its dry? Im free mostly in the week too.

Today I spent £10.30, on fuel and pumping my tyres - and then had a go on the black mountains again, Im starting to get to know them well!! :)

nice... but not my cup of tea really! I ride in all weathers, but ride outs need sun, or at least no rain for me to enjoy it really!

we were going to turn back, but decided not to, which was a good desision, as i enjoyed it,
