Andy (Chicken Legs)
Stu (MAM)
Steve (Big Dummy)
Rich
David (Asposium)
Sean
Mart
Matt C
Andy (reverse)
Jay
Jase (really, who knows)

If those folk can just raise their hand to confirm or deny their presence asap, that'd be lovely :-bd

You can take me off the list. I've just remember got to have some dental work done on the Friday . Half a tooth to get removed what they couldnt get out with the pilers X_X

No bike involved, but I pre tested the chippy in Penclawdd today, not bad at all, and there's an ice cream and bar place across the road....

Can't wait!

I’m really keen to do this, if the group isn’t too big already.

Stu, how hilly is it likely to be, never been to that part of the world. Do I need to fit the 34/20 or will the 32/18 be ok? Or... and I'll say it quietly, bring the Spearfish and have gears :o Which might be a much more social option.

Reasonably flat Sean. Proposed(ish) route shows ascent of 1600m over 90km.

Perhaps I'll just put the 34/20 on to make it easy on my legs, hopefully at a social pace I'll still be able to keep up on the flats.

He'll just have to put up with whatever ratio I've chosen but he rarely does his share of the peddling :grin:

A motorhome would be a bit overkill surely? It ain't the TdF... :wink:

But yeah, what the plan?

What's an RV? I haven't yet decided which bike, or shelter, or bag etc. to take. The only thing I know I'm bringing is Ralph :lol:

It'll be next to the news stand in Swansea station - you'll recognise them by the rolled up newspaper under their right arm. Codeword is "pigeons"

I’m afraid I’m out, my parents asked me to look after their lurcher, after the year they have had (Mother in intensive care for six weeks during lockdown) I couldn’t deny them their first weekend away in two years. As a bonus I get to play with a very large Woolf hound lurcher so fun will still be had in the woods :-bd

Unfortunately he’s a very old boy, a gentle trot around the woods is all he can manage now.
