How slow is a retarded Sloth compared to one with a fully functioning brain? Image

In back to back tests, I've found them to be at least 27% slower.

Cheers for that Mike D...yeah...that'd be good. I can throw the train fare into your tank instead. Let me know if you have a preferred route to get from A to B and I'll add it into my majik box.

Matt - What time are you going to be leaving Aberdyfi?

[Matt]

10am? Then it's casual speed to get to Stu's for 1 unless BBT fancy meeting us up at Glas Llyn?

[Stevemorg]

Glaslyn may be a better idea - I'll have a look at a map

[Mike]

Have fun all on ur jolly :0)

Planning on riding in from Llanbadarn Fynydd on the TCW if anyone fancies joining me.
Should be about 55 milesish.

Planning on riding in from Llanbadarn Fynydd...

Are you planning on doing the river crossing? I imagine that would be running fast and deep now. Take some floaties :)

Hadn't spotted the river crossing !
Is that before Rhayader ?

The first big ford on the TCW is at Llanbadarn Fynydd. The route comes down the hill, across the A road and then down into the ford. Take the A road to the south and use the bridge. The river wasn't over waist deep, but it was flowing fast in November...with all the rain we've had, you might just want to avoid it.

See paragraph 3 here: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=6556

Thanks, I am going to park at the Church in Llanbadarn Fynydd and will avoid the river as you have suggested

I was planning to go the direct route via Hafren.

[Matt]

That's just avoiding hills and a push

[Stevemorg]

I think it'll make more sense to ride from Stuart's if my blistering pace isn't going to put people off!

[Matt]

Right see you at BBT

Hoping for a casual pace and then with 1km to go, hammer down to get there 1st and avoid sleeping in the annexe

[Mike]

Im missing a good one by the sounds of it, will be a repeat of the last time we were at nant syd. John if ur going this time pal can i suggest u take some slippers

[Lawmanmx]

whats the flooding like down your way Stu??? are there any river crossings on your route?

[Chew]

Are there any river crossings on your route?

If it's the direct route I'd doubt it. Generally hardpack forest roads and country lanes.

May be a bit wet underfoot and damp across the Hafren bridge, but nothing to worry about.

[Matt]

Dyfi bridge is very closed

[Taylor]

Dyfi bridge is very closed

What you doing then MATT?

[Matt]

Hoping to use the CAT footbridge

Scott, My limited IT skills have caught up with me and it seems messages aren't working for me.

Will pick you up 9-30ish tomorrow, sun, but you will have to remind me where home is, I can almost remember but not quite.

[Stevemorg]

Apparently there's a landslip stopping traffic leaving Beaumaris ATM - hopefully sorted by the morning or I'll be swimining the Menai Straights to get away from the in laws!

[Chew]

Dyfi bridge is very closed

Probably worth having a look in the morning

Maybe passable by bike in the morning

[Matt]

Although it's slaying it down at the moment
