Welsh Off-Road weekend

[Greg Masters]

Can anyone take a paddock stand as my boot is already getting a bit full and I've got two other guys' gear to stow?

I'll put mine in the van Greg.

I've been able to borrow Phil Reynold's map of how to get to Rhayader:

Greg

Err Is It me or is that map the wrong way round I know I'm not involved in this trip But how the Feck did you manage to get the image that way round.

Have a cracking weekend guys

Well spotted! Phil Reynolds isn't very good with maps!

Is this any better Greg?

Have a great time in Wales, boys!

Would have loved to come but have to go to the Lake District instead - in a car!!!

Well, stay upright and have lots of fun! Looking forward to your ride report and plenty of photographic evidence...

Hope I can make it the next time!

cheers for another great weekend guys , nice to see you all.

Here's a few pics I took...

First puncture - 10 minutes after we left. That's Simon's bike everyone's stood around. After fitting the new tube and puncturing it ( oopsie ), Phil & Roy took Simon's wheel to get a new tube fitted at a garage. They came back with a new tube and a new tyre. £ 66.00 to fix a puncture

poor old Charlie Batty was next. He had a slow speed off and unfortunately cracked the water pump casing on his DR-z

 

[mrTickle]

a not happy Mr Batty

 

[mrTickle]

so we towed him to a garage and tried repairing his bike with Araldite. It was not to be and sadly the end of Charlies ride

 

[mrTickle]

the rest of us carried on

 

[mrTickle]

and hit the water

 

[mrTickle]

in more ways than one

 

[mrTickle]

the water wasn't quite as deep as the last time

 

[mrTickle]

but still great fun

 

[mrTickle]

lunchtime

 

[mrTickle]

and then a bit of motocross on a full stomach

 

[mrTickle]

de-forested National Forest

and finally the crash of the day
