That sounds like a good plan Ty, may try to catch you there myself, but dont wait up if im not there as im meeting a lad in Aberdare before hand to convoy over from Hirwaun. See what he says

Ian

 

Yeah I think I may do that

 

Where's this Horseshoe bend too ??

I wouldn't mind a ganders.

 

I believe that it is the big layby where the ice cream van and burger van park up as you head towards Brecon after the visitor centre , usually full of bikers . About a 2/3 of a mile after the visitor centre.

 

I'll be there then, but I'll be coming from Abergavenny way to get abit of a nice run up through the mountains.

 

il be at the layby in the morning

 

weather looks a bit ****ty guys

 

Fair weather drivers

 

quite a few pistonheads pulling out.

 

don't bother waiting for me i ain't going. have a safe one lads

 

Not a bad day out in the end despite the weather, bloody dicey though!!! Chasing a DB9 was the highlight of my day!!!!!

 

It was an awesome day! The weather didn't put a downer on it for myself or my mates at all!
