better out the nin. i had a massive mixed grill the night before cos some gannet ordered the last steak... woke up early in the morning feeling decidedly rough but thought id be alright.
tent stunk of bad eggs :roll:

much later i realised i wasnt going to make it to the bog (or even out the tent) to lob up but fortunately i took a roll of binbags in case me stuff got wet.
made a handy barf bag. :sick:

dont think it had anything to do with the 2 cans of caffreys and 6 pints of red reverand lol :angel:

then i smelled everyone eating bacon and sausages & i was off again :sick:

pity the tramp who goes rooting through the bin for a meal lol :biggrin
thanks to cheekySue who remedied me with some rennies and paracetamol, i was ok after that & once i got some wind in me face.
enjoyed it very much. the ride that is, not the lobbin up.

at devils bridge, when we turned back to get back on the a44, we couldve carried on and it wouldve brought us out further up!!!
good road as well, similar twists & hilly bits like the one we turned off.

Geo,
Thanks for editing & posting all those clips, was great watching them.

That last one brought back such good memories, even with the rain, that part of the A44 was great, so much visibility through the corners you could go for it, and when the road dried up on the last 20 miles back into Ryahder it was bike heaven. I got to the camp site grinning like a big kid after catching back up after stopping to put on my waterproofs and then the last 5 or 10 miles riding with benny through those mega fast down hill sweepers .......:thumbup:

having watched that vid now, I have to go out riding tomorrow even if it is raining........there is a risk I will be dissapointed as the roads round here cant match those in Wales.

This a collection of pics of whitedoggy and I on our way back to England. They were taken on the Go Pro with it set to take a pic every 5 seconds. I like this setting and will use it more I think :)
