Me

brisk ride out to Neath into what felt like a massive all taking turns on the front.
then onto Swansea where we changed the route slightly to avoid the traffic for the air show. up the hill to the DVLA we had a close call where an Audi driver overtook at speed but didnt notice the bollards in the centre of the road
Onto Rhossili for coffee at the bay overlooking the bay.
back through Swansea over townhill which never gets easier. avoiding all the traffic. to be honest there was no difference in the traffic. we only saw 2 planes fly over. must have been early for the air show

at the traffics lights for fabian way Angelo questioned would be riding back at chasers speed or pacers speed to which we said just hold on at the back. he went went back at his own pace.
Nigel put a big turn in across harbour where at one point with the tailwind we were hitting 30mph.

good ride all see you next week.
