Is there going to be to much tarmac for me to come on my crf450x ?

MAT there's also the ones up by egglos above Caerphilly, Phil will correct the spelling, several around port talbot,
Strata only if it has not rained for 6 days. Its a fuel tank on my bike not a life jacket

Ok so we have takers for the 22nd lets look at that as the provisional date.
I have posted this ride as a BIG TRALLIE RIDE using off road orientated tyres. The route is yet to be sorted but will be probably more road than off road. The idea is to get some of these big dual sporters in the enviroment they do perfectly well. Bearing in mind an ADV ride was completeed by a complete novice on Tourances on a V strom anything is doable, but be prepared to slip a bit more than if you were on TKCs.
This is not intended to be an ADV style, more by way, orientated ride, it is probably a 70/30 % split and would therefore not be great for single thumpers that need an oil change every other village with a valve check required at the lunch stop Stuart you are more than welcome to come down for a thumper ride with us most other weekends
Hopefully the ride will take in some of South Mid and West Wales finest scenery, so will be a nice day out. Lets hope some decide its a bit different to the norm and decide to come along
