Weekend Ride (12th March) South Wales
Hi Folks,
I've agreed to go for a ride (weather permitting) from Barry/Cardiff, up to the Beacons this weekend with a mate, probably the Saturday (unless it looks like Saturday will be gash weather, whereas Sunday will be great). Anyone fancy meeting up and coming along? Fairly flexible about time/length of the ride, so anyone interested, say so and we can arrange something. Cheers, Ceri |

That is unless you go another way... Though I will probably still be on the hire bike... Im only now starting to trust the damn thing wont fall appart! |

Don't worry re: hire bike. We won't be going hell for leather- my mate has a naked hornet without a flyscreen and doesn't do over 80mph. I also expect that whilst the weather should be clear, it'll probably be less than ideal and still a bit greasy. |

Jabba, who can't go has.. I quote
Just had a call from Mike Odelet of the IAM. They will be doing a promotional "assessed rides" thingy at Black Mountain Yamaha, Abergavenny this coming Sat/Sun to coincide with the launch of the Yamaha MT01. There will be escorted rides, test rides, etc. Just turn up if you're interested. Perhaps somewhere to head for, but it may be packed! |

As for a meeting point.... theres plenty olong the A470... Abercynon roundabout would be easy for me.. plus its big enough to stop on the side of it... other than that... the only other place I can think of is that petrol garage before you reach it.. but for me to get there means going all the way down to Ponty, and then back up....
Mogs, if you decide to come along, I could come down to Nantgarw.. ?? |

Ceri.
I'll meet you and VB at the Abercynon roundabout. It's down to you now to state time and day, Sat or Sun (my preference is Sat but will fit in whenever). (I'll PM you my mobile number so you can text me plans if we havn't made a decision by 4.00pm friday. I don't have a functioning PC at home) |

I'm not familiar with the roundabout, is it safe to stop on for any length of time/is there a layby on it? I'm just concious that it's illegal to stop on roundabouts, and any old bill who are about might take a dim view... Cheers, Ceri. |
