Abergavenny Bus Station on a Sunday

Re: Cafes/ meeting points
Bury hill, near Arundel in Sussex always bikes there the cafes not bad for a burger,a bit like a mini version of Rykas. Best of all it,s a really nice ride from Rykas to Bury about 40mins along a good twisty country road and some fast Dual carrigeways.

Pottery's Cafe on the B4265, 1 mile from the A48 Ewenny roundabout, good grub, milky coffee's in a mug and a hearty breakfast that is reasonably priced and with the "add ons" would mange to fill even the hungriest dude or dudette. Watch out for the car park, its wall to wall gravel but if driven slowly I'm sure everyone will be ok. Also, ignore the funny looks you get from everyone inside, just say Good morning or afternoon and they'll not know where to put their faces [IMG]file:///D:/DOCUME%7E1/DAYWAL%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/msohtml1/01/clip_image001.gif[/IMG] closely followed by this little gem of a cafe, The Downs Cafe on the A48 just outside Cowbridge.
