Sometime tomorrow morning (pre 7am if possible) we need people to make the call if its on or not (a Welsher really)
I’m a refugee! but will stick my head outside early tomorrow and post the conditions up on here before 7am.
I’m the far side of Swansea though so East Wales/borders may be a little different to where I am.
Forecast looks like clouds/ occasional sun in the morning / early afternoon, showers then rain coming in late afternoon / evening. So we should be ok.
I’m in Bristol so if MKChris and I report in between us we should have a fairly accurate picture of the weather (can’t guarantee it’ll be before 7.00am though….)
Are we still looking at 10.30am at Aust Services? I suggest we meet in the first car park as you drive in, rather than the higher level round the back where the petrol station is.
Cool, I’ll aim to be there a bit before 10.30 then.
Are you guys who will have come a fair way likely to be wanting food soonish after meeting up? If so I suggest we head to the Honey Pot cafe just outside Talgarth first – they do a good cooked breakfast among other things. Probably about 40 mins from Aust.
Do we know if shedbrewed is coming? He put a good sounding route together, but if he’s not I can sort it out, and I’m sure MKChris can too.
Not fussed for food until we get some way into Wales. Maybe stop around 13:00? I was thinking earlier that it would be a wash out, but roads were nice and dry on my ride home tonight – just got to watch out for all that wash out/gravel.
Think I’ll take my textiles, cant be arsed to don the 1piece waterproof over me leathers.
Currently crisp and dry in the west.I have read the route and printed it.Not ridden it yet though.Most of my road knowledge is west/mid Waleshire.Can string something together if Shedbrewed not out to play.
Will check in again with the biking forecast b47.
I am home safe with a cuppa.
Nice to meet you all and thanks for coming.
Hope you have a drier return run than I did…weather got worse.
A great day out even with the soggy bit at the end.
I’ll practice some cornering before the next one!
