I'd like to book another room, please can anyone recommend an alternative hotel, thank you.

On the Premier Inn app it shows rooms available on the sunday night.

See you there.
Seeing as setting off time is 10.30 I'll aim to be there just before 10.

How did a simple invitation for a rideout in wales come to this?

I suppose the clue is in the title of the thread. South West and South Wales Area.

I've spoken to Markus and it's looking most unlikely that he'll have a new bike by Monday 6th May. If this is the case, I will not be riding down to Abergavenny on my own. How do those others who are attending feel about me starting another thread for a meet at Ilkeston on the same day. If it's a p...

To give me an idea of the route we can take. What sort of mileage would you want to ride. I know some of you will be riding some miles to get to Abber on the day. So i don't want to make it to long or to short a ride. I know its also down to the weather on the day to. I could make up 2 routes, one ...

Add your name to the list so we can see who is coming.

MikeS (I can be there for 9.30).

Its good (for the want of a better word ) that you came away with minor injuries, as has been said many times before the bike can be replaced.
Hope that you heal up over the next few days.

Out and about today delivering donated breast milk to neonatal units.

I had a similiar problem with the OEM high seat, sliding about when i was wearing textile trousers. Bought the triboseat universal seat pad, worked well but just looked a bit shite. Ended up buying the bike specific cover but unfortunately it doesn't fit the high seat particularly well but looks bet...

https://www.trustedtyres.co.uk/ If you're in this chaps catchment area and need tyres I recommend Jon's company. Had a rear puncture and as both tyres were reaching the end of their useful life opted to replace the pair. Came today and did the work. Punctual , friendly and a good price. Plenty of po...

I will leave it till the end of the month, to give other a say as to what date is best for them and everyone.
It would be nice to get a 6+ size group of us together.

If its any help, I'm not fussed if its raining or dry.

EasyRider wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 7:26 am I understand that, just trying to work out whats best. And see who is up for this.

If mid-week how about May 7th , 8th or 9th
If weekend, how about May 11th or 12th

Could do the 7th ,8th or 9th.

Hello all, I was just thinking if there are any members who would like to meet up for a coffee and a ride out. There are some great roads around the Brecon area to ride. But if anyone else has a thought on where and when, post it on here. I was thinking of meeting up in mid May at Abber Bus Station...

Picked up a nail in the rear tyre this morning, noticed after a drop in the tyre monitors pressure on the dash. Got home and tried to plug it with a rats tail, no joy. As both tyres are nearing the end of their useful life have arranged a recommended mobile tyre fitter to replace both on friday. Off...
