Sunday 27th March South Wales to Mid Wales ride out (and back)

Talking of the men from hereford. we passed one of their training grounds when we passed the Pontrilas Sawmill from Hereford to Abergavenny. Thats what I've been told shhhhhhh
 
Oh and I just remembered on our trek we passed llandewi brefi. Pissed myself. No I'm the only gay in the village!
 
To be honest Tricky I don't reckon u coulda got back to Abergavenny much before us and the way we went. What u reckon Gilo. Prob about the same eh????

Got there about 1520 Bay , Problem was that my hip was killing me (old age dont come alone) ,been taking pills but the effect had worn off, but as the sun came out it did not hurt as much so thought i take the long way home.BTW did you know it was still legal to kill a Welshman found in the centre of Hereford on a Sunday.those English have long memories you know.Thought i could'nt take the chance & stay within our borders.
 
I didn't think we left crossgates till that time mate.

Pissed again . it was 1720 you know something past 5 PM afternoon whatever...well done on spotting todays second deliberate mistake, ( the first being the suicide overtake by Chrickhowell) .
 
LOL we were back by about that time as well Tricky. In fact had enough time to carry on down to the Hardwick roundabout and take a drive back through Aber town. Told u you should have come back the same way.
 
Ok but I was running the T in & Bill was on the CB 1300. you know if we were with you it would have put 15 mins on your time LOL
 
Nah we stuck the speed limits. Didn't much go over 60 till we got to Hereford then its a straight run to Aber
 
If any of you managed to get any video of your cameras yesterday let me know.
I know newelly windy and a couple of others had video cameras strapped to various parts of their body/ bikes, and if anyone else did that would be graet.
If we can get some decent footage together i will compile it into some sort of video.

If you PM me i will send you some details of how to upload it to my FTP site, Windy get yer kids to read it...


.

What was all that about having 2 helicopters in the sky as well. What a feckin waste of the tax payers money. Maybe they've got some good video of Windy doing 120 across the Brecon bypass though.

.

Gilo, im just going to contact the local rozzers and see if they will let me have a copy of their heli cop ter camera tape from yesterday. Purely to show off our law abiding riding and respect for the local roads!!!!!!!!!
 
The sound was awesome. I realised tho I was the only one with a standard can!!

Yeah, when everyone started their engines after the stop at Llandovery I was sitting there listening to the noise - it was awesome indeed! I could feel my brain vibrating inside my head :thumbup

One of the funniest was when we left abber and turned left up that small side street, that pensioner walking down had the shock of her life.
Im sure she thought there was an earth quake happening.:megaphone
 
Yes that street was cool. Also when I'd lost you and stumbled over a mountain pass I was fab at scaring sheep out of the way. Roly's CBR wasn't anywhere near as effective :thumbup

I would have thought rolys bike would have been more appropriate for you welsh boys, Scaring sheep was the opposite to what i thought you did to them:T

We rode through a similar stretch of road on the way towards shrewsbry, chuffin scared shitless incase one of the daft things decided to run into the road. just as a precaution i passed thenm in second gear full chat.......:roost[
 
Yes I love that street which runs alongside the angel hotel. Really echoes the twin doesn't it and u can hear how loud they really are. Wouldn't u bloody believe it though. Perfect weather down here todAy. Suns out and I've had to paint the outside of my soffits all day.

Ps after all the talk of the cops I didn't see one other than the ones that stopped for coffee. Perhaps they'd done their quota of speeders for the day and then decided to go chill out.
 
well Bay i bloody hope so, i couldn't friggin believe it, 30 in 30's 40 in 40's a bit mental on the dual carriageway and what was that in the corner of my eye,oh yes a big blue and yellow chopper trying to have a race, running alongside at a brisk pace, buggery bollox, i'd just waited at the brecon roundabout so followers could see where we were going, gave it some berries,, oh ****, i just hope something dosn't come through the post.......fingers crossed, anyhow still a great day out, hey stix next time we go out do you wanna borrow the enduro bike ? :lol
 
Well what can i say .... feckin great day and good to meet you all .
Good side effect of sunday was that ive been on pain killers for 2 weeks after doing something to my chest at work , was struggling a bit yesterday but bugger me , got up this morning and NO pain , Ts are good for your health as well !!!
As was said before , Windy , get the kids to sort that video , lets hope its not of sky or tarmac !

A few of them I put into mega panic mode - quite funny really :)

Windy - yes you did catch me back up in rather a hurry. Especially as I was cruising about 90 up there! I saw the helicopter and just thought 'Oh look a helicopter'. Whoops.

Oh and yes any bike would have been better than a Tuono or CBR on the crazy road we found ourselves on.
 
**** me, fair play stix....i used to mountain bike around llyn brianne so i know what its like !!
