Doesn't matter what the reports say, you are all overlooking one unavoidable point! This is Wales boys, of course it'll bloody rain! Just adjust descent speed accordingly, you certainly won't need a coat, but can chuck in my car if it'll make you feel better, and enjoy the cooling benefits of the occasional shower!
And yes Geoff, up on top of the Beacons,wind in your face is your worst enemy! And rest assured even though you are effectively doing a big loop, it'll never be behind you.

Lol! I have a track pump mate, and any manner of spares!

I just thought we'd split the jobs up evenly. You're team manager so Andy can be head mechanic

Similar - aiming to get to campsite about 1 ish, set up, relax, then head over to register about same time as you. I'll mention Team CycleChat when i register so they know we are together.
