Im happy to go from Brackla at 7am ( as long as the weather isn't too bad )

How about miss out the loop to Magor but keep in Usk ( thats the best part  :) )

I was going to say that the bit up to Usk is better than going through Risca etc.

That would save a few miles and should be reasonably easy to navigate, famous last words!

s'alright I know the way.

Cutting out the loop to Magor knocks 10 miles off. Will make it a 100 miler from Brackla.

Everybody OK with a 7 am start?

Weather forecast looking a bit grim but hopefully it'll change before Sunday.

If you're setting off from Brackla at 07:00 then I'll aim to be at the L'Oréal roundabout in Talbot Green for 07:30 to pickup the group as it comes through.

Making some changes to my plans for Saturday so hope to join you all now on Sunday. But I agree with Jason regards the navigation, I hope the route doesn't include any short cuts over the central reservation 😄

OK Jason, we'll meet you en route, good news Richard, more the merrier.

I'll be bringing a triathlete mate along who cycles with Ajax, so we'll have a decent group.

Anybody else fancy joining us?

I may be at the Loriel roundabout at 7:30 - but if not there go without me.

Sounds about right Andy, I've got your mobile number so if we're early or you're late we can let each other know.

Said in earlier post, I'd be at club tonight if anybody wanted to chat about Sunday ride but I can't make it.
Weather forecast has improved slightly, so I will definitely be in Brackla at 7:00 on Sunday, ready to ride the planned route.
We can decide on cutting short if weather turns grim.
See you there!

Hi guys, I am a newbie to the oggys!
Would it be possible to tag along on this ride? Am booked onto the velo so would be interested to see the route.
Am going to pop along to the clubroom tonight to say hi if anyone is about.
7:30 at the L’oriel round about is best for me if this is ok with you guys?
Cheers

 :( Sorry can't make the ride, see you next time :)
