I'm not going that way, but we could meet in Ludlow like we did with Rob on the last ride. It's a good ride out through Leintwardine, Knighton then a stop off to eat at Crossgates cafe.

If you don't have waterproof boots for this ride, you may want to consider some 'sealskinz' socks, I'm envisaging quite alot of deep water so be prepared

Snorkels at the ready mates

after doin the BMW off road course...

christ in a pair of slippers that was a good two days out with the BMW off road school!! jumping off your R1200GS at 40mph whilst going down a feckin steep hill then careering head first down a near vertical 12 foot grass bank and the bike ploughing into a tree sort of drives the "let the friggin clutch out man!" message home!!

Awesome - would recommend to anyone! just be prepared!!

 

[Gaz]

Well I'm back, bike is washed, curry eaten, shower taken, and en route to pub.
My cherry is well and truly gone, as was the bike (almost) on 4 occasions.

In short, I've had


A FECKIN BRILLANT DAY

Considerate, interesting and intelligent company made the day for me, I salute you all, even if you can't find your way out of a Welsh forest

cheers

Dirty Dog didnt go then...........

 

[Gaz]

Oh he did Alan, it was a select grouping of me, DD, Robbie C and Jayceer.

It was DD who had waypoint trouble but other than that he was the perfect host

You two should bury the hatchet

 

[BTBR]

You two should bury the hatchet

No hatchet to bury.........or at least I don't think so.

Its just that we both think that each other are utter tossers, simple init.

my poor bike

I ride it to croatia and back (3200 miles ) , I dont even give the poor thing a day off and then I take it over the welsh mountains aswell, I've lost count of how many mountain ranges and passes I've been over in the last 2 weeks
