Post by: Ben on April 24, 2017, 04:04:26 PM

Anyone out tomorrow? I've got a day off and wouldn't mind having a ride.

Mid-week regulars will know I didn't expect to be in the Country this week but things have changed and unless it's raining (or snowing)I will be at the B&Q roundabout at 9.45 as usual.Is that any good for you Ben?

Hi Ben/Tom,

I'm hoping to make 0945 at B&Q.

Sounds good to me. What sort of pace and distance? Where abouts by B&Q roundabout?

Ben,

The Treoes side of the roundabout opposite Starbucks.

Ok 😊 I shall try and be there. Go easy on me. I'm only an ambler.

Mark,Nick.Ben Steve and I set out at 9.45 this morning.Neil set out about 9.49 and caught us by Flemingstone!Ben on his Tuesday debut very generously followed Mal's precedent of last week by paying for us all at the Café but I don't think Ben was celebrating his 65th!Much appreciated Ben and you'll have to come out for several Tuesdays just so we can re-pay you.Neil on his Harpo bargain bike-apparently it was squeaking so it had to go-if I sold my squeaky bikes I'd have none left,not to mention my knees!
Hope to get out again later in the week-will post

Is anybody out Friday morning? I'll be at B&Q roundabout at 0945 if you fancy a bit of a social spin? 8). Coffee at Café Velo is the usual option but I'm not bothered as to the exact route or distance (up to a point)!

I bumped into Ron this morning Mark and he and I plan to be out so long as weather is ok.Cafe Velo coffee stop suits me as I need to pop into Forza briefly but we can get there by a different route for a change!

Hi Tom,

Great, the usual route suits me but I'm not fussed if anyone else wants to tweak or extend it. My only sticking point is coffee and cake!

Me,Ron and Mark this morning but met up with Neil and Dan(sort of son-in-law!)on the road then Terry and Tony on their ysual Friday ride joined us in the café.Not so cold as last few days,bit of light rain but not enough to put coats on.Lights in Boverton and Ogmore-by-Sea at the moment!

Nice ride today, I was intending on a lazy morning but it's hard to resist young Tom's offer. Mark and Neil looked very smart in their Castelli tops with the Aero stitching, saves 2 seconds over a 100 miles. Is the good weather going to break, Mark the "Shop" is Prendas, might as well look the part!!
