    Talking rhyader weekend mud snorkelling campionship

    Up at sunny Rhyader today I met up with some English invaders keen to fleece the local sheep and they even brought their own Morris dancers with them. The riders and players: Stuart 123456789 on the Stelvio, STAN on the KTM 990, Jason from Pontypridd on the GS1200 Adventure - yes a 1200ADV!, PDSQUIRE on his 650 TransAlp with a back tyre from the motor GP after Rossi has finished with it, PaulS on the shiniest @ in the world, Slanty on his KTM 525 orange water allergic blaster, Terry (Cupid stunt) on his Yamaha Tricker, Tendays on his Dzr 400, Mat (Cabbage) on his DR350, and Me on the Sexr 650.

    Shot up over Elan valley on the first of many byways the first incident was PD'S chain coming off oversome nice rocks. The second was PaulS pulling his groin whilst stopping the bike from touching down in a stream, who then evac'd to go seek medical attention.

    his description of the ride before he left was a little potter around the Reservoirs, and it may get just a little green in some places

    Re: rhyader weekend mud snorkelling campionship

    Hi Peeps

    I decided to go home after a few hours and straight to the hospital as I started feeling not too good

    I've strained a few muscles in the groin area and also a small tear in the outer lining of an artery which caused the small lump that appeared.

    I could not sit on the bike so rode home stood up most of the way and got some funny looks from other road users but it was the only way I could get back

    Sorry I could not do the whole ride but I enjoyed the bits we did

    Till next time peeps

    Thanks
