Mine are pretty much the same. Here are a few:

At the Ponderosa, waiting for stragglers like me:



Fine view of DaveP:



I luuuurrrrvvve this bike:



Mister C in pensive mood:



This here's Old Git:



At the head of the Elan valley. What a fantastic place. Just before the bridge (see next pic down), I saw a 'Failed to Stop'. There was a Zafira holding everyone uyp, too narrow and twisty to get past, and when the road narrowed still furhter and there was oncoming, the driver stopped in the midfdle of the road. Oncoming Audi struggled to get past, mainly on the grass and bracken, and door mirrors whacked. Audi drove on, Zafira mirror in pieces on the road. Well what do you expect if you stop in the middle of the road



Looking back:



and ahead. Notice that my can is hanging off - the bolt securing it to the sub frame has disappeared, leaving the entire weight of the can (and it's a heavy beast) hanging from the mid pipe:



Clwedog:



Don't jump!!:



And it's here that I misunderstood Mike's instruction to pull into the layby as an instruction to ride on. Got separated... tsk, but with engine running, ears ringing from the can, and plugs in, it was a bit difficult to hear anything. Will know for next time!!

Good photo's guys. Come to think of it after all that shouting at foreign Volvo's and racing the camera's timers across car parks, I haven't seen the photo's from the Conwy run two weeks ago. Has anyone posted any?
