I won't be out this Sunday. I'm off to watch the little one play Rugby.
Could someone post a ride and take the group?
Thanks

I'll be out. If no one posts a ride we can decide on the day?

I'm not out this week as my bike is still knackered but hope to be back next week

I'm finishing up some jobs in the garden while the weather is good. Hope to be back out next week with you folks.

There were 7 starters for today's ride; Carrie H, Hannah, Geoff, Nick R, Nick H and two guest riders, David and Lee.
We set out to do mainly familiar lanes via Treoes, City etc. By the time we reached Llanharry, David had realised his close-ratio gearing didn't suit the ups and downs of the Vale, so at Ystradowen we pointed him in the direction of Cowbridge for an early coffee. Being familiar with the coast road he then intended to tackle the undulations and light headwind on his own to get home. The rest carried on up Watery Lane, across the A48 then via the airport road to Cafe Velo. "Two Cups" Lee, having drunk Hannah's hot chocolate in one, said his coffee wasn't right and had to reorder! We then headed West, Geoff turning off after a few more miles, Hannah carried down "Death Valley" off to get home on time, along with Lee who, despite carrying a full pack (with satellite phone, parachute and a couple of bricks?), wanted to spend time in the gym, no doubt to work off the extra chocolate. The remainder headed home via the coast road.
Good weather, nice company -Back next week perhaps?, though not Hannah who is going to be a bit busy for the next few years! (Though we hope she might be able to ride with us again in the future) - Good Luck Hannah!
