p.s. hovis, lost in a car park? good work. i was getting completely lost all the time here (still am), manage to make it home from tigertiger everytime though:drink:

[Welsh_Wizard]

haha..probably mate.. i would still get shown up if i was on the fastest bike on the planet.

Only just bought my machine so still super careful !!

We'll make a thread on Friday when the weather is a little more guarantee'd and arrange a meet place for us all. If you don't know the area Draper, I can always come and meet you in Cardiff centre somewhere and then we can ride up and meet Hovis. Jesus - You about ??
Sarah - Is your bike coming home for the weekend ?

[sarah]

awwwwwwww bless (she realy does think shes got a bike?)

Sarah - Is your bike coming home for the weekend ?

Don't think so. I'm actually going to be in Cardiff this weekend though.

[hovis]

[Draper]

ohh no no, i will definately be the ****test rider

i was mainly referring to the lack of curves

everyone will have to go easy on me

[Zombie Jesus]

civil engineering, so I'm parked up at newport road when I take the bike, which is not very often

I might be up for leading a ride around abergavenny/ brecon / 1000 sheep road on saturday morning if it's dry.

if i dont go to weston beach race, i will be up for this:smt045

[Draper]

ahhh right yeah, know a couple of people doing that, good stuff

i was told by my indian friend that i should turn up to the first lecture with a towel on my head stating that i thought it was a requirement in order to pass:p... turns out not so many indian people like wales, or certainly dont appear to be there, was surprised

anyway that was random, but yeah i'm generally gonna be free as long as its not in the day in the week. brecon, wherever, i'll be up for it

[Welsh_Wizard]

wicked.. check back on the forum sometime on friday and we'll arrange a soiree for saturday morning heading up Brecon way..

[hovis]

wots the weather forcast looking like?

[Draper]

righto mate, sounds good to me

[Draper]

i dunno but i presume it'll rain?

[Draper]

oh i stand partially corrected, accuweather reckons it'll be partly sunny with zero hours of rain

[drefraser]

Alright mate, I am from Cardiff and a noob biker so we're almost in the same boat.

When the weather sorts its head out we'll go for a pootle about..

April it is then. Hopefully.
Ewan

[Welsh_Wizard]

hehe Ewan..

umm..apparently the weekend is going to be alright.. sun will be out and possibly cloudy. (BBC)

[Ollie_07]

Morning all!

If it is dry and semi decent weather ill come on Sat Morning too, but ill probs need to be back by 2pm'ish as i have plans.... although bike is more important so i may need to rearrange! :D

[gettin2dizzy]

so where abouts are you living?

[Ollie_07]

Im Cwmbran mate :)

[the white rabbit]

Where's Caerdydd? This is an English speaking forum. Are you Welsh? If not, what on earth were you thinking of? :p

[Draper]

haha no i am english (well half welsh but yeah) wolvo born and raised

i just fancied putting caerdydd up there

its a pretty novel language, 'rseholes to the english is a goodun i've learnt, but thats about the extent of it

[gettin2dizzy]

There's a guy I work with that I can't understand a word he says. He sounds ****ed and like he's speaking welsh. Even after asking him to repeat things 3-4 times I can't get it!

[Draper]

haha i;m getting into the swing of things, adding 'is it?' on everything i say

keeps me amused round all the welsh boyos anyways

[Ollie_07]

haha! :D

So are we out this Saturday or what? weather looks ok...

[Welsh_Wizard]

I will definately be out. I got some stuff to do early doors but I reckon by 11am/12pm I'll be up for something is it??.

If anyone wants to meet, PM me and I'll drop you my mob number is it ??
