So six of us set off on Harpos Mystery Tour with Steve stopping for some fettling along the way, we went out via Sarn Services -> Fountain Rd -> Port Talbot -> Neat -> Glyneath -> Penderyn where we headed over the lane and down to Merthyr.

We stopped at Costa for people to admire the bikes except for Hapos, they didn't like it but apparently they really liked Steves Venge.

Off we wen't to Merthyr Vale (where Steves gilet came out of his back pocket and in to the rear cassette), Cilfynydd -> Treforest -> Tonteg where I peeled off and left them to it.

A good ride today and keep that up Nige, you'll just get stronger and stronger in the pacers group.

I expect a proper write up by Harpo later on.

Thanks all for getting me round.....would have been a bit easier had the front mech not kept dropping me off the big ring on its own and not letting me back on!!!!! adjusted the turn buckle made it a little better but spinning like mad when not on the big ring burnt the legs out a bit. Was OK yesterday so perhaps one of them bumbs moved it a bit.

Thanks Jase.... thats the idea to push myself and the 2 rides ive done with OVW have done that!!!!! Velothon next week hope the weather is same as today
