Fair point, although I think I'd prefer a boat trip to 4 hours of motorways!

Hour and a half blast down the M4 to warm your tyres up and you could be in Bristol to join me to ride up through the Brecons.

I'm probably just as far away! But there are good roads to get there rather than motorway bashing.

Just been looking again at the pictures and videos of last years BPW. Can't wait for this years one now.

I'm thinking about making the Saturday ride much longer this year. I know of a couple of cracking mountain roads further south and east. They'd also involve a stop for coffee in Aberystwyth, and quite possibly Rhaeadr Gwy at the Elan Valley.

Sounds good. I'd be up for a longer Saturday ride. Sunday is riding home too so similar distance to last year Sunday would be great.

Bunkorama is provisionally booked now for those dates (10/11/12 July). I've told Graham I'll call him back in the next couple of weeks to make final confirmation.
