5 days i think.... right, may as well provisionaly book it for the weekend of 1st/2nd..... whos likely to come along ?? warning, that if it is fecking raining.. chances are it'll be called off unless some of you still wish to go along!

I have plenty of waterproofs... but I WILL BE WEARING THEM if its raining!
i.e. get your own you lot!


This is ONLY if I can get my sprockets done at somepoint over this weekend or during the week.... shouldnt take me long to actualy do that... but knowing me, I will try and clean the engine up with the sprocket cover off!

various meeting points.. Magor services for those who arent local... and Tescos petrol garage Aberdare for those who are! Would have gone for Shell in Hirwaun, but they closed it..

weekend of 1st/2nd April.. whichever day is to be sunniest...

as said earlier, this is weather dependant... if they forecast rain for next weekend, will see what happens...

will probably be aranging same route a number of times.. its a good bimble when the sun shines

Aberdare is about 10 -15 miles North up off the A470 from Pontypridd... its the next valley over from Merthyr.... and Magor is on the M4... its for those who have no idea how to get anywhere to meet up.. so I can attempt to lose them on the way through the back ways to Aberdare

In the from box type Pontypridd. In the to box type in Magor, don't worry about the via box

You can print out a map as well. I may be wrong but if the meeting point is at Magor, then I would think it would be at the services just off the m4.
