I do wish ....
... that the Welsh Govt would ease the lockdown. Purely selfish, I know, but I am gagging get to Bala / Barmouth / Criccieth etc.
I had to go east to Skegness last Sunday, and while it was nice, it wasn't the same as riding through Wales. |

Re: I do wish ....
I live along the A483, and judging by the amount of bikes howling through at the weekend I don't think the lockdown is being policed much. They have even been along and put the large yellow 'ride safe' signs on the poles

Re: I do wish ....
My daughter has moved to Pembrokeshire and needs a DBS for her new employer so I feel due to the urgency it may need to be hand delivered

Re: I do wish ....
I know what you all mean and on the one hand I’d love to be able to get out and ride just for the sake of riding. On the other hand, I think the easing of lockdown in England is going to result in a rapid rise in infections and deaths fairly quickly, and I’d really rather we avoided that in Wales. If that means we stay locked down for longer I personally think that’s a price worth paying.
We’ll definitely have to get something organised though once things do ease a bit. |

Re: I do wish ....
Looks like it's w/c 6th July, then. Last one to Davy Jones Locker in Barmouth buys the bacon butties (if it's open)

Re: I do wish ....
Work have told me I have to use up another weeks holiday before the end of July so have spread summer vacation last week of July and first week of August so think I will let things calm down a bit and head over the border on a weekday.
Hopefully places to grab a bacon butty will be open by then |
