Default Black Mountains... possibly.. when it stops raining..

Right, once I get my forks sorted so they arent forked... and serviced the bike (again)
I may sort out a ride up towards the Black Mountains via Llandovery etc.... good news is.. no caravans on the road bad news, cant do it when its raining, as most of the roads are rather twisty.. Did this run last year about the same time, just had to put up with frost/ice that time... will sort out a date once I iknow the weathers settled and stopped ****ing down.... I no longer care if its cold, I have heated grips on the bike now.. :P and enough things to wrap around my kneck to constitute a kneck brace

change of start points from last time, use to use Magor services and drag everyone up this way... start from Abergavenny, as its just as easy to get to for you lot on the other side of the border plus its heading in the right direction... again, when weather is better, will put up a date and time...

most likely attempt this for a staturday, or failing that a Sunday...

Don't mind the rain on the way back, just not on the way there. It's just the gales that would put me off.

Dryer roads would be nice without the soggy wet leaves, would get a chance to 'use' the bike a little.

Dont worry lads, Im no longer interested in going out in all weather conditions... dry days only for rideouts now... dont mind frost, but getting soaked is no longer classed as fun these days...

some on here will vouch that I'll still go out when it starts snowing.... Lemmings started to turn blue that day... will also have to arrange a trip to Aberystwyth again me thinks.. avoiding the snow this time.. and crazy Impreza drivers...


so you be in Kaaaardddiiiiff on the weekend Viney.... at least the football fans will be out of town..
