PS on the 20th Aug fun run I beleive I'll be using a ruc sac as I haven't got a tail pack so really a no contest for me. **** **** bollox. I've just remembered the Mrs broke the zip. I might have to invest in summat. *****
I don't have a card. Just have to insvest in a ruc sac or Summat. Will get more use outta that than a tail pack
Only one for sale on fleabay and that was up to about 25 quid. It's only 39 quid brand new. Rather spend on new sprocket and chain though

Shame you can't make it. It'll be my first mid/north Wales ride without you there!!
Never mind at least you'll be getting hammered too
It's about 75 miles for me to get to crossgates ash so I'm in same boat. You rucksacking it as well or do you have tailpack or similar? Luckily for you tho you get to drop it @ trickys in the morning, I have to hump mine around virtually all of Wales! Better pack light :thumbup
I was contemplating the idea of coming back to mine the direct route first so you could drop your stuff if first. Cup of coffee & a quick sandwich if you like. would mean only a pit stop in crossgates for everybody & no sunbathing.

Heine gerrick got some tail packs for about £40.00 also seen a few in MCN quite reasonably priced for Oxford I think.

Was only thinking of calling in to Aber as a bit of an afterthought wasn't in the origional plan. llangurig to Aber is a great road but will probably be loaded with tourists away on holidays to West Wales.
If we come back direct route to mine at least you can do the crossgates / Newtown road again. we'll have a short lunch stop then take it from there. I've arranges lunchtime off on Sunday so if Newelly can get his arse over here Saturday night I'll take you back to crossgates the scenic route over the mountain from machynllech to Llanidloes. Not the fastest of roads but is very picturesque.
If anyones going to follow him they'd best invest in a headlight protector. I've never travelled behind a bike that kicks up so many stones as that one and I've no idea why.

Tidy, Of course discounts for shared rooms. As long as there's no uphill gardening taking place & gravy stains on the sheets.

I'll be down this way on Saturday & Sunday.
Not sure where we're going Saturday but will be leaving the Brecon area around 8am headed West then North me thinks, so our paths may cross somewhere. Sunday more antics but again not a clue where!
Have a good day all & keep it rubber side up, Robbo.
