I am on a train due Cardiff 2340: will put the feet to the pedals & follow my trusty (?) Garmin but please wait!. I have The Claud's mobile (ending 124)

That's plenty of time for a cyclist of your vitesse to make it to the bay. We won't go without you.

) Anyone riding it from London, or is the lure of RWC at HQ too much?
Hope you have a perfect ride, and a bit of rugby banter at the meet.

On my way......
For a morning ride, shortly. Forecasts kept shifting during the week, dry to showers to dry again, and there will still be a headwind. Dice insufficiently loaded for a 150 miler today- I'll probably do it again at some point as it is a lovely ride, just not today. Am braving the FGW cattle truck, may the BSO-wielding numpties be elsewhere. Allegedly into Cardiff Central 2046 before carb-loading at Pizza Express. On the Trek as it's the nearest thing I have to a gravel bike (slightly less terrifying for Bog Road).

The right choice, Stu. Especially as our Welfare & Complaints Officer will not be there tonight and any complaints about The Bog Road will fall on deaf ears.

I think Adam and Rebecca are on that train - I said that we'd wait for them if they're late.

Welfare & Complaints Officer is probably going down the pub. He's deaf anyway.

@Flying Dodo @velovoice If @User482 speaks Truth, I am in coach A, seat 76. See you in Cardiff if not before.
Quietly is I think OK

@Gordon P - @Flying Dodo has all the details, though I do know it's the same train. I love Coach A, so hope we're in there with you.
To everyone else - though I weathered the Lowlands Tour surprisingly (to no one more than me) well, I've had a few niggles which I saw a sports therapist for yesterday. I'm a bit sore today but fully determined to soldier on tonight. Please bear me with me if I'm a bit tired and slower than normal (!) - all forward movement is good, even if I have to walk a few of your Welsh hills.
BTW, my boss is a Swansea boy. He and a few others in the office are just amazed that I am doing this. My "hard(wo)man" status* (what? me?!) seems to have shot up far more than it did for the Lowlands, and will no doubt be even higher on Monday!
* Who needs Eddington numbers, eh?

Aha - so you have bought a new one? To replace the one you had in the Lowlands that had the routing option set to "mountaineering"? Which is why we had those very interesting little diversions round the back of people's houses?

You do know all Garmins have a mandatory 'let's send them somewhere completely unsuitable' feature in the routing, right?

In case anyone made the same mistake as me - that's not the Millennium Stadium. It's the Millennium Centre. (I've now un-made my mistake and intend going to the right place).
