Should be around 55 miles and weather forecast is cloudy and hopefully dry.

All welcome see you Sunday 9am weather permitting!

Good one, thanks for this Lee, see you Sunday.

5 hardy souls turned up for a soaking this morning to brave the wet and windy miserable conditions. As we headed out towards Caerphilly Mountain along the planned route a coffee stop at the Mountain Snack Bar was well deserved after a cheeky little mountain climb! (thanks Andy for the refreshment, my turn next time!) Strong turns on the front again from James doing most of the donkey work with Richard L close behind. There was no let up with the showery intervals on the return leg until about 2 miles from home as we approached Ewenny but an enjoyable route all the same at just over 49 miles and slightly under the advertised 55 miles, shame about the weather

Out today were :-

James Criddle
Richard Lewis
Richard Bowmer
Lee Stoneham
Andy Samuels (guest appearance - good to see you back!)

A few of the chasers are unlikely to be out next Sunday but Richard B will post a route for the following Sunday (18th June)

Thanks Lee, enjoyed today's route.

Richard L, not Richard B, to post the route for 18 June.
