Nah mate, I think I got it all covered. Only worry is one set of temp traffic lights on the A5 at Padog Bends might be reinstated after the holiday break - just hoping they are off all week and won't be back till after the ride. I drive that way several times a week so will know in advance anyway.

I'll be passing through there on the way down, so I'll let you know on the morning if you like. Last time I passed through there, they were using the Convoy system... I'd love to see 30+ bikes following the quad.

Doesn't matter to me whether its alcohol, caffiene or any other poison - I'm sure you won't be short either way.

i'm tooo excited. I just want everyone to keep their fingies crossed Suzy behaves, and my cold doesn't get any worse. Spent 3 hrs in A&E with a very poorly 6 year old last night. I'm very tired today..........but thats not stopping my excitement, I've been so tireed today I spent 2 hrs looking for a bike mirror that was not lost!!! Just got the brake lines to move around nad hopefully thats it.

Ooooh not long now, hope the weather gets better!

The weather aint that bad at the moment, granted today it's been trying to sleet here in NW, but it could be worse.

Think I'll be bringing the waterproofs with me on the weekend just in case.

MetCheck says it'll be OK Sat morning, light rain in the evening, then heavier rain overnight, and light rain again Sunday. Should be a good couple of days.
