    Cruise into Wales Feb 08

    On a freezing weekend, a couple of dozen members decided to rise the breadth of the country for a laugh.


    At the Sarn Services, near Bridgend, RV point for for groups from S Wales and E England. Here are DaveS and Lord Vader, laughing despite the pain he was in.


    Chad and Gnasher.


    Elaine (?) and Sharribee.


    Chatting before the off.


    Sharribee, Mabel's Old Man and pillion on the Bwlch Cerrig Duon that runs from Glyntawe to Trecastle.


    Sharribee.


    Mabel's Old Man.


    Mr Mabel leading the way over the military ranges at Mynydd Bwlch-Y-Groes that runs between Trecastle and Tirabad.








    Mudwiz at a brief stop in the woods.




    Lord Vader taking photographs of his poorly foot.




    Varadero riders laugh at danger, ha ha!

    Cam and the Mighty Varaderos.

    More photos will be along soon.

    Boo hiss! I was up at 6, frozen in a minibus to Harrow (could have ridden the bike to Wales in the same amount of time - and been warmer), frozen on the balcony of a sports centre watching indoor cricket. At least my son won so makes it to the final - the Lewisham girls team lost on a run-rate count back it was that close.
    Looks like you had more fun than me though.

    It was the Welsh way of stopping the Germans invading.
    Unfortunately he was persistent and didn't let a little thing like a car running over his foot stop him.
    Forum help and advice needed?

    Please put captions so we can work out who everyone is.

    Although, having seen photos of Chad's hairy back on this forum before, can you please not scare the children this time!
