4 of us out today
Keith
Chapman (sponsored by cafe velo)
Nigel
On setting off there wasn't much talking going on until we hit Cardiff bay for a toilet stop for Keith who in his usual manner always needs a wee stop when going through town centres
Over coffee we worked out what was missing and that was the usual terms of endearment-encouraging comments from our captain to make us ride better and faster :D

Onwards to Newport flats where we got a good chain gang going. Coming in to Newport there was a kamikaze old biddy who stepped out on me to cross the road and kept going almost taking out chappy and Nigel.. :o

Onto Machen where Keith treated himself to a double strawberry ice cream.back through llantrisant with couple sprints to pencoed..
Thanks to chappy and Nigel for helping the tandem and not dropping us from the start.
