One note to be aware of, at the entrance to the slate working depot nearly at the top, there are slippy road signs, looks like new tarmac been laid right on the sweep of the bend. Forecast looks pretty grim for weekend, ill post saturday afternoon the "live" weather report if anyone wants?

Still needed a wash though

My bike's minging...not been washed in weeks, just covered in carp and salt

Have some S-Doc 100 tho so will try and clean it at the weekend.

If you could post a weather report on Sat or even better, 1st thing Sunday, that would be cool!

Good point this. The weather MIGHT not be too bad down in LLangollen but can get really bad on the Horseshoe.
What about a back up venue in case? The Bridge End etc.

The Pondy is only about 2 miles from Llangollen and even in the Summer it is windy up there , we will definately be ensconced inside with hot beverages . I ride all year long so weather doesn`t bother me , I will be there

I was thinking more along the lines of it can be raining down in Llan and drifting snow on the horseshoe. Hopefully it will be ok though.
