Busy trying to recruit some mates to do this. I think I enjoyed it more than my companions last time.
Not sure if my tales of the BB200 will help or hinder the cause ...

As I never buy a paper I don't think that will work. If I said I was popping out to buy a bike I'm much more confident I'd be believed ;-)

Caersws.
Although don't ride down the main road. There are some options of back lanes that are a far nicer ride.

Cheers Composite, I shall bear that in mind If i get a pass.
However there is no way the missus will let me take the car and actually trains arent looking overly expensive at the moment if i book far enough in advance.

Entered. Something to look forward to get through the Hell that is the last two weeks of December. Only way to get through it is the thought of better days and this event!

Entered. Hopefully another cold and dry one, either way it's better than the weekend at my Mother in law's.
