CC Llandovery Ride. Sat 26th May.

Good reason for the pub omission as havn t decided yet whether to ride clockwise or anti clockwise, I think you are a week early on the half term, unless thats just wales. Its only one day man ! Surely the kids can do without you for one day. Just think the promise of a pint from LD has been lingering for at least 2 years, will you ever claim it if you don t come.

..and my other crotch is fine thank you !

Where's the pub, you haven't even marked the important bits!

Yes, LD needs to re-assess my priorities - I'll be in need of a drink at some stage.

I'll be riding this on running legs not cycling legs.

Me too !

But be assured, not only have I cycled far fewer miles than you, I''ve run fewer too. I'm probably older than you, almost certainly less fit and probably carrying a few more pounds . My bike is over 30 years old and my cycling attire is distinctly 'shabby'.

I'll be getting round on 'muscle memory' - I think that's what it's called .

To be honest, when I read that my buddy Banjo can't do it, I very nearly pulled out; but I can't resist the opportunity to double my total yearly mileage.

I hope that there won't be too many 'speed merchants' doing it - but if there are, I'm sure that I'll find it to be a 'character building' experience.

You're right, a shock in itself, I'm a week early.

Younger and fitter, hmmmm.....

If I'm struggling, I'll just moan at LD all the way around.

Hark at these two ^^ I ll pack an oxygen tent for the pair of you !

I'm hoping the same.....please wait for me at the top of the hills Looking forward to it, hope the weather improves.

There's a pub at Rhandirmyn

 

[pubrunner]

Shall we have a start list then ?... Why not.
Pubby (al fresco ?)

Sadly, al-fresco won't be attending this one . . . . . . . actually, probably just as well, 'cos he's really been churning out the miles. He does more in a week, than I've done all year.

No need, I'll bring some breeze blocks for you . . . . two or three should be enough.

Hmm depending on which way we do it it ll be near the start or near the finnish

Route is here http://ridewithgps.com/routes/1036542 10 am start at castle car park. I would think ride duration 4-5 hours.

Thanks LD. If it agrees with her plans I can go back to Swansea with TMN, if not I'll need to get on the 16:33 from Llandovery - as there's about one train a fortnight and that's when it goes...

If you want to kill some time TC (if not going with TMN) i'll be riding back Carmarthen way. You could pick the train up at Llandeilo.

Cool - it's good to have a few options. I sort of assumed there'd be some lurking around in a boozer post-ride.

Careful Graham might just change his mind, and put off that kinky audaxer swapping weekend he's been dreaming of !

 

[pubrunner]

Sorry people but I have to drop out of this one .

Great, more cake for me !

Try not to get too emotional about me not going Andy. Its fully understandable and its OK for men to cry these days...
Unfortunately I have some family stuff then and its the only weekend I have off between now and June.
