    I think Moto Guzzi may well have lied about the parts being obtainable…. 🙄

    Think you’ll have to count me out – currently can’t even get through to garage to see if my bike is ready or not 👿

    See you all in the morning.

    Forecast for Cardiff is sunny today, light rain tomorrow all day..(BBC).

    Only got dry trackday tyres on my bike, so I’ll be taking it very steady if its not dry.

    Sometime tomorrow morning (pre 7am if possible) we need people to make the call if its on or not (a Welsher really)

    Good Call.

    Who wants to be the spotter?

    On a cheery note, I say BBC weather last night suggesting nothing more than cloud, so there really is no better way to go than just go….

    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.

    The border country looks dry until about 5pm, by which point we’ll all be on our way home.

    I will be going.

    I wouldn’t really want to start a vendetta with the italians

    Have a great day – have to do one next year assuming moto guzzi have sorted the parts by then 🙄

    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.

    AndyRT

    Good idea, and yes. 10:30 is the plan.

    I’ll be leaving Winchester at about 8:30ish to be there in good time

    aka_Gilo

    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!
