Harpo continues his term in office and his second executive decision has been to delegate this weeks route to myself however with strict instructions as to the destination  .

So a trip to the Burry port Millenium centre it is.

Plan is to leave Brigend via Brackla past Brewery fields to Aberkenfig, Up Fountain lane and then Margam, Harbour way and into Swansea.

My Swansea directions are not so good so barring any other suggestions we'll head towards the mumbles turning after the cricket ground to go through Sketty, Kllay, Dunvant and Gowerton then over the Loughor Bridge before dropping down into the millenium visitors centre.

I'm pretty sure there's a cafe at the centre.

The return is basically the same route but via Baglan and stormy down to trim a few miles.

Distances is around 87 miles but pretty flat and not much wind forcast

Forgot to add the route.

[Steve Chapman]

[wardhaugh]

Like Steve, this one's a bit too far for me tomorrow. Have a safe one.

Majority rules, was not bothered going to Llanelli wasn’t fussed anyway. Ps it wasn’t strict instructions! Would be good to no who’s going out and who has to be home early! Could plan route to suit all then and get some more involvement in this thankless task

[harpo]

How about this then???

I'm not out but why don't you stick to the original route, HOWEVER, if you only cycle to Llanelli ONCE and don't double back on yourself on a number of roads then the route looks like this

I was  going to cut through Swansea into Forest Fach that cuts a few miles off, ive done it few times! Anyway definatly not going to Llanelli now, will see whos there in the morning an stick to the last route!

[Nige]

I will be out and happy with anyroute

[Paul R]

I'm riding tomorrow.

What ever the route your never gonna please everyone Harpo, keeping the routes around 60miles in the winter makes it a bit more appealing ( especially for those who have to cycle an hour or so to come to the club run ) and extra miles can always be added on with an extra loop. I love the long days out! like the trip to Bethlehem last year ( hopefully we do that again ) but these need to be planed and hope we have the weather on the day. Ill be out tomorrow whatever the route, ill just turn around or turn off to get home for 1pm. See you in the morning as long as its not

1. too windy
2. raining
3. too cold
4. very wet roads
5. icy
6. too dark
7. looks like rain
8. snowing
9. looks like snow
