Title: Chasers Sunday 14 October
Post by: RichardB on October 11, 2018, 09:54:56 PM

Andy not around this Sunday so I'll be posting a ride, I'll share something tomorrow.

Forecast looking dry but a fairly strong westerly wind. Will probably look to avoid the Vale and the Cyclone Sportif and head out west somewhere. And will probably avoid lanes generally too given the amount of rain that is going to fall on Friday and Saturday.

77.4km and 956m climbing, coffee stop half way in Costa Neath. There is some rain forecast first thing, hopefully that has cleared by 9, and a westerly wind.

See you Sunday

Not sure where everyone was this morning. Just 3 of us out, me, James and Chris Reed. The weather was very wet to start, then less then wet, then very wet again. Followed route as posted but with no coffee stop, too wet. But great to get out and get some road miles in the legs.
