Went on a Bothy trip to Wales this weekend, it was freezing (-3 this morning!) wet, boggy and one of the most fun weekends in a long time. Went for a long ride, popped back to the car, got dried, ate in a pub then went to the Bothy. Fantastic!! We then had a cheese and wine party in the Bothy in front of the roaring logburner 
Good Times!
Then this morning we cooked breakfast and headed back with it trying to snow.

That was one of the best weekends we've had in a long while.
Made even betterer by the extra cold weather,company and location.

Correct answer.
LOL @ Mr Nutt, yeah Spot Merino top with Indy Fab arm warmers are not a good look are they!
Pete, a few!!
I was passing there (bothy) Saturday afternoon so I popped my head round the door.
You weren't there but I met a young lady and a poodle.
She was there when we arrived last night, she said someone had stopped by and asked if there were any bikers staying! Must of been you!
Oh Aye, I get where. Was going to stay thee once on a bothy trip a few years ago, it was a little ambitious. Passed it on the way home. It looked leaky...
Nice doss that!
Excellent spot. Its a good ride from there to the other local bothies too for a tour if ever you feel like it. And the drop down from the top of the valley is awesome!

Did her son try to mug you for the contents of your Camelbak?
Hey that floor looks rather lush !!!! Sorry we couldn't make it although we did have a lie in till well after ten today it was about +22

Looks a brilliant weekend, very jealous indeed!
Son and mother were out walking when I called. I advised the girl to get their sleeping bags on the beds.
And I'm a die-hard waterbottle user.
where do you get the bed roll bag thingys for the front of the bike from in the uk
They're dry bags from Alpkit tied on with straps!
The son was a fan of Ray Mears although it looked like he ate him rather than watched him!!
KoS watch who you're calling mincers!
Less water than when we tried it nickc... (if it is the same one I'm thinking off...)
Aye, I think so...

Warmer than -8 agreed but not 'warm' We're were talking in the morning over breaky about another trip. Sooner rather than later for me.
Me too.
I'm arranging a MTB-Wales trip to Moel P very soon. Coal is already laid in and well hidden. Google 'Tywi Track' or 'Tywi Spashes' or 'Strata Florida'
