Sorry slipped into Trev mode there. Isn't there a good chance of rain on any given day of the year bev. We do live in the UK. In the last few years the weather has been good until the end of November.

I do hope you're right. Glorious sunshine here in the Gower today . Recklessly came here without my sun hat, so may have to go shopping . PS: I might well be up for a Wales bimble on 30th Oct too .

Interested but currently can't ride due to not being able to bend my right knee enough to get a foot on the foot peg. This will be a target date for rehab.
Will we start from home?

My original thought was just a Sunday run only, but has they say northing written in stone. if people would like a Saturday meet that could be arranged. Thought about starting the run from the Mcdonalds roundabout in Uttoxeter.
McDonald's - Uttoxeter Dt BY PASS ROAD UTTOXETER STAFFORDSHIRE ST14 5AA
McDonald's - Meir LYSANDER ROAD MEIR PARK STOKE ON TRENT STAFFORDSHIRE ST3 7WA
Meeting @ 08:45 to leave for 09:15 prompt.

Just keep an eye on distance and time as the clocks go back that weekend, so it will be dark early. Paul and I fell into that trap a few years ago. ah ah.... so thats why it went dark ! omylf

Sorry about this Im going to change the start location, The start location will be
McDonald's - Meir LYSANDER ROAD MEIR PARK STOKE ON TRENT STAFFORDSHIRE ST3 7WA
Meeting @ 08:45 to leave for 09:15 prompt.
Did a recky on Sunday, found some cracking roads. The route was Llandrindod Wells for lunch carry on down to Carmarthen & make our way back via the black mountain pass and down the Devils Staircase. unfortuntly did not realise, how many miles this route was until Sunday its 329 miles which is probally too far YDC run. Back to the drawing board, route still to be confirmed[/font][/font][/font]

I am sorry too. I don't think I will be able to manage a full day out on the bike. Best I have managed so far is just over an hour.
Like El Bandito, I will try to make it to the start to say hello.

Is there a sudden National shortage of heated grips down there ?

Is there a sudden National shortage of heated grips down there ? No.... It's not the weather that has put an end to my biking days. And at an average of 12k a year, it never has. That doesn't sound good Dave . , hope it's not !

Have a good day everyone.

Have a good day everyone. Ditto. I had the fanciful idea of an early start to join you this morning, but in the end couldn't muster myself in time for a 9:15 start . Weather's looking pretty good for you .
