The idea was to make it possible to get there in the morning. Abergavenny is nicer but it costs a lot more to get there and there are two poxy bike spaces per train...

Sorry I missed that.
I think a new thread should be started for this ride incase anyone hasnt noticed this extension of the old afterwork ride thread.

I agree.
BTW, as I have Thursday & Friday off, an Abergavenny start wouldn't be a problem.

OK thanks Banjo and theclaud for the info. I might be double-booked on that weekend but I'll keep an eye on this thread.

Nasty, hope you ve fully recovered. I fell out of the kids trampoline couple of days ago, out cold for 5 mins apparently. Needless to say beer had something to do with it !

Little bump. B&B sorted for Thursday night, train tickets booked (return not till 1944, so no problem if we return to Newport a bit later than planned).

Can you give it a slightly bigger bump
Where you booked in, Stu?

Labuan House, mile or so from the station. Not much more expensive than the Ibis Budget with the added bonus of not being on an industrial estate right by the M4

Great. You coming from home in the morning? I will get the route sorted this weekend.

Yup. Looking at train times, I can get in to Newport from 0746 onwards so I should be able to fit in with whatever you're planning. Happily, return trains run late enough for me to indulge in some post-ride malted energy drinks.

[QUOTE 2628604, member: 45"]Oooh, I've only just seen this as it was part of the after work thread.
27th September ride from Newport? Sounds interesting. I may be up for it if I can get the time off work. 100 miler might be a bit much for me but I can always bail. It's only 40 minutes drive from mine. Am I allowed to come?[/quote]
Open to all CC ers as far as I know. See you there.

I'm hoping to indulge in a few post ride milk shakes as well if anyone is staying on. If the cafes are shut I suppose we could go to the pub :-)
