Fabulous trip that V and wonderful pictures

If riding to a mates place and sleeping on the floor is within the rules then next winter is going to be a lot more comfortable than previous ones
Nice tale though

They look like the white piano keys to me

I have never heard your sleeping mat

I hope not I haven't got round to entering yet either

Looks like you are pushing the boundaries of LLS

If I remember correctly didn't you put up a picture of a Pine Martin in the yard last year ? It appears they and their habitat are supposed to be properly protected .
I realise that this is probably a stupid idea but isn't it possible for the wind farm and the rally school to coexist somehow .

After finding out that the epicentre of the recent earthquake in Wales was just about where our SWWB bivvy spot had been it seemed like a good reason to go and have a look to see if there had been any damage to the old buildings at Trefil quarry . So away up the old tramroad from Talybont to the jun...

I think I will go and have a look next weekend to see what's left and as it's going to be March stop for a lie down at a safe place .

My first reaction was to check the date in case I had overslept

I love a good cryptic situation and trying to guess what on earth's going on.

Don't worry Reg. Not too long before people will get a chance to slowly shake their heads and mutter, "FFS, what kind of drugs is he on"

I would like to know that now

This months bivvy was the No Sheep Till Buxton experience

2/12 for this year and 50 consecutive months

This month's Bam is number 50 so when Reg suggested chasing sheep around the Peak District it seemed like a good way to tick it off . I arrived in Macclesfield early enough to find somewhere to park close to the station got sorted out then got sorted out again as one does :smile: As soon as I got to...

Better send them a box of matches

This month's Bam will have to be the night out on the Winter event I was hoping to get out on a slightly drier night but it's not going to happen . Psling and myself set off from the community centre and after a long uphill struggle we arrived at the café in Llanbrynmair ready for breakfast . Fully ...

With some extremely cheap wheels from Superstar

No

And the heels could double up as crampons now you're talking

I was one of Sean's riding companions over the weekend and managed to have warm feet the whole time which was something I never thought I would ever be able to achieve my feet normally get painfully cold around freezing point meaning I have to walk on a regular basis to get some warmth back in them ...

Following the previous night's Bam and unfortunately deprived of two of the team for family reasons the four of us set off in the company of a beautiful and crisp morning. with only one thing on our mind the café in Talybont on Usk https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52559306324_9d20a7312b_c.jpg PXL...
