Wales rideout date change to 10th July

Pretty much. It's a few hundred yards from the roundabout. So for you travelling south from Newtown, you get to the crossgates roundabout take a left and it's on the left. Cafe, petrol & lots of bikes!
 
I've been out working on calls today, so I acted as the rain decoy for you guys!!
 
How was it people??
I got a bit wet three times but got to enjoy some good roads between storms
Oh yea Bay came out of the closet

Then we got absolutely soaked & took refuge in a teeny pub. This was after the rain had stopped getting back to our sorry looking bikes.

Luckily they all started :)

After the rain stopped we left pub & split. Me Roly & bay heading to Aber. No rain, rain, no rain etc. all the way to Aber then it was peachy for me and Roly back to Bridgend.
 
Soonds like it wiz fun, rain or no, which wan o youse is the dude in the Star Wars suit?
 
The good news is ... what an excellent day!

Good to meet a few more guys and put faces to avatars.

The bad news is my spunking camera didn't work ... nothing. **** all.:banghead

I know why ... there was a loose connection in the battery housing which I've fixed but thats nfg now is it!

I especially wanted footage of Marks near death experience when he danced with the black Hyundai Coupe round a blind bend. I thought I had it all. The commit, synchronised acceleration, synchronised braking, the wobble and the wave.

Gutted.

******* annoyed and gutted



I have to say that the road from Crossgates to Newtown is a bloody stunner ...

Also the ride over the top of the mountain, the stunning view, the pretty sheeps ... everything I could have wished of a ride in Welsh Wales and more besides.

I'd also like to say thanks to Bay (TZone Entertainments officer) for running as pack leader and giving me somebody to follow.

After we left the pub, me and Zippy got rained on all the way home!
 
That because you went the wrong way then New. South was where the good weather was!!

Missus said no rain at all here all day been a cracker. Flipping typical :)
 
I love my stripey t shirt. Truth is I wore it with the family yesterday down the zoo and couldn't be bothered getting another t shirt dirty to go on the bike. I wasn't aware it was going to be a fashion show today otherwise I'd have worn my suit ;).

Yes good ride out today. Good to see some new faces very briefly cos they were quite quick. As for the White suit RICO it was ******. Quite appropriate really with the site name. Looks good on the bike though.

Ps pleasure organising it pete. Stix (Ian) was a bit worried about leading the pack today if I didn't turn up cos every time I've shown him the way before always tend to go a different way. Just some variety and different roads.

Pity about the rain but everyone got home safe and there weren't any accidents. Some ropey overtakes though ;)
 
not sure how to approach this one, as i,ve been wrong before,,

but bay lad,, have you a prosthetic nose?
 
Lol I'll be honest it ain't the most flattering photo. Was leaning back against Summat which makes me gut poke out. Not saying I'm not a largish lad but not that weird a shape.

Ps for all those worried about my gout it didn't affect my riding. I was still crap ;)

Ironic really Bay that you turned me away from de-reguer cammos ... to leather and changed my life for the better ...

But then you turn up in one of Geoffreys cast offs!

******, Tricky, Zippy and Evlin were bloody quick today ... too quick for me!

Yes, there were a few dodgy overtakes ...

Mostly sensible though.

Just checked my trip meter

228 miles

Max speed 116 mph

My reserve light came on in Kiddy so that was about 2.5 tanks of juice = £40 well spent!
