Wales or south Cotswolds?
Saturday's no good for me mate, sorry. Family stuff.
If theres a lack of takers and Sunday becomes a possibility I'd be interested but don't change anything on my account.

Umm... Remind me closer the time, but there is currently a good chance.
Dude remember you're invited over for Sunday. We'll be having some fun and games with the Bikes in Bridgend. Free tea, coffee and cakes too. Then pub for lunch and the rest is up to you! Same offer open to anyone. Here's the thread if interested - http://www.welshbikers.co.uk/forum/the-welshbikers-cafe/so-you-think-you-can-do-a-faultless-mod-1-we'll-see!/

Wife, Mother or Tagging Officer? :scratch:
Have a fun ride folks, I am heading down to Exmoor tomorrow for my second cousins birthday party. Should be fun and will no doubt end in a wrecked pub, lots of sick and maybe even a fight. It depends on how much I drink! :smt042

No idea. Do you know how to get there?

Yes (at least I think I do), shall we say 9:30? I think it's about half an hour from the services.

I'm actually less than an hour away from Bridgend ATM, depending on if I can move any muscles of my body I might pop down tomorrow.
If you happen to see a lost little Englishman on a black speed four come say hello.
If I am going to drag myself there I'll post before I leave.

Unfortunately nobody videoed me, needless to say it was faultless ;-)

That was fun. And somewhat embarrassing.
Big thanks to Ronnie and the guys from the training school for organising that. It turns out the Mod 1 is a little more difficult than I first thought.
Its the pressure! :D Cheers guys for coming. It was really good to see you both again and hope you enjoyed it. Grant, I'll post some of those vids to the other forum. Steve, I needs to see the 749 in action! It looks flippin awesome man. Bike number 3 maybe? Org discount?
Spank, how did you get on in the Mudder?

It was horrendous.
Apparently wales is a lot hillier than Hampshire... who knew?
Still got round though and still completed all the obstacles.
I did swing by the bridgend area late in the morning on the sunday but couldnt see where the place was and was feeling the pain so I got back on the motorway and settled in for the long haul.
Before and after, second on the left, then far left.

OMG that's nuts! And you paid for the pleasure :) Well done for completing the course.
Yeah the venue was a bit tricky to find so understandable.
