Welsh Way Round MkIII. Sat 20th May 2006, S Wales

Just done a final recce with Jabba.

The final stages of the route offer a sting in the tail.

Single lane, plenty of pea gravel, and a cement batching plant.

If it's raining we may avoid it.

So was I. With Jo's new job, it means that she works every Sat. Which in turn means I get to not go on any Rides organized on a Sat.

Have a good time and hope the weather holds out for you.

Me and T should be attending this, where are the usual meeting places and what times on Sat?

Services at Aust, where I got Dr Rich to guide you into last time is probably easiest for you.

I herby declare Aust is where I shall go. Doing the Cribbs thing is daft really as Aust is only down the road and by the time we have messed around at both its an extra hour.

Aust Services is now called Severn View Services and is at the english end of the OLD severn bridge, accessed via the M48 which leads off of the M4 signed Chepstow.

Coming from west you can also leave the M5 at Avonmouth, go through Avonmouth itself (enjoying the apocalyptic scenary) and follow signs for Aust that way, coming out right at the M48 rounadbout where Severn View /Aust Services are.

Coming from Cribbs you can take the B road under the Cribbs/M5 junction rounadbout towards Pilning and then Aust. Again you avoid some motorway that way.

Dr Rich do you reckon thats the best way for me and Liz to go if we are coming up the M5 ?

looking at my mapbook.. from what Rich is saying,turn off at Junction 18 on the M5, and get on the A403, which will take you straight to the old severn bridge...
