Just to say what a great few days bludgening around Welsh Wales with the Bus and the Fut was had by Brian & me! BIG thanks to Brian for the invite and organising the routes :-bd
Based in Rhayader we had everything a man and his bike could wish for; the Elan Valley (twice), Devil's Bridge (twice), the amazing A483 from Newtown to Builth Wells (once only - sadly, but we'll rectify that at another time), A roads, B roads, mountain roads etc. etc. etc. all well surfaced - and where we went, hardly any traffic. We had more amazing biking roads than you can shake a bent con-rod at. The weather was perfect and well behaved and so were the wooly chicanes. Twas nothing short of biking Nirvanha IMO.
I'll put up a couple or several pic's in the Rideout Pic's section.
If Herr Ptolemyx even THINKS of organising another foray across the Severn bridge without including me, I'll chain him in front of Howlin Jack while they play Stairway to Heaven ceaselessly at 150 db's - he knows what I mean %-( . . . . . . . . . atcherly, he'd probably like that, so instead I'll make it a C & W band playing sloppy dirges :)):
