Yes, that's what I remembered, but I hadn't seen it anywhere on the photographs.

It's there somewhere hiding behind another bike. The GS is Tom's.

A very enjoyable few days, good weather, great and largely empty roads, good company, I very much enjoyed it. Thanks to the organisers. Reality returned this afternoon as I fought my way through the crowded roads around Bristol and strained my neck into the brisk crosswind along the A30. 1250 miles exactly since I left the house on Saturday morning but the tyres have been rounded off again.  :winkthumbs:

I was going to ask why I looked 5’ 5” tall in the photo but then realised that’s what my height actually is ;D

Well I had a cracking time thanks to you all, 740 wonderful miles for me in total and great company throughout, long may we keep burning fossil fuels doing this, and shout out to Martin for wanting to organise a West Country Wrinklies trip, I’m sure he will denigh saying he would organise it due to modesty however, in my book, credit where it’s due eh 😁

Well, if the route contained some misplaced waypoints, then for sure the photographs contained some misplaced GS's : not a single R...  ;D :-X

Sorry for not having a higher res shot.
Very very nice custom seat by the way, Ady.

A big thanks to Richard & Brian for organising the routes, even if some waypoints were misplaced :o & I'm sure others had a hand in too.

I think everyone had a thoroughly enjoyable few days of riding some of the best ( & worst LOL ) roads that Wales has on offer.

To Matt, hope your not getting Gandhi's revenge from the Beef Phall we had Weds evening like I am ;D

Hope to see you all again soon.

Oh no! Touch... raw meat, I'm OK so far! But I did spend most of Thursday inspecting sheep feet and getting headbutted by them so I've probably got ... foot and sheep disease instead :D.

It was a great time as ever, I particularly enjoyed... my GS suspension! Unfortunately the rain got me today on my way home. The last hour and a half on the m4 was constant rain and heavy spray. I think my feet were the only dry bits left.
