OP Storm Wales 2021 10th 11th 12th September

[AMCQ46]

So one of the roads is called "Gravel Road"....
Should I be putting knobblies on?

and a skid plate to protect your Ti Akrapovic


some of the intermediate shaping points were a little bit off the main road, so I have fixed that, it should all be tarmac now.

if the weather is OK on sunday, I will go out and do a check on a couple of the B roads (B4368 Clun to Newtown and B4520 Brecon to Builth Wells) to make sure they are OK. the other B roads to the west of Llandovery are a bit far for a day trip out from my house, so they will remain a gamble.

anybody else out sunday wants to meet up mid wales? this is my planned exploration route https://kurv.gr/4DvaN

Nice day out testing B roads. full sunshine in the afternoon and I even used the Storm rather than the KTM (so my knees hurt now! )

Found a few belters

The b4368 Clun - Newcastle section could do with being resurfaced and I was starting to think I shouldn't use it for the ride out, but once the road crosses into Wales, they have spent some money on it and it, and the Newcastle to Kerry section delivers big smiles.

Kev the B4358, Newbridge to Beulah , you need to add that to your tour. Cracking road

Then the b4519 from Garth heading south, gets single track in places but well surfaced and wide open hill top, so great visibility and you can use all the road ..... but it climbs pretty high and there are phenomenal views into The Valley. More scenic than the elan Valley and more fun to ride.

I only did the top half of the B4520, but that is epic, although some of it it is on unfenced, open hill farming, and the sheep are painted neon pink, so that can mess with your focus

A great day for it Al
I've got the gloss painting first coat on and then came out to wash the car and get the paint fumes out of my head
I'd rather be out riding. Mind you If I saw pink sheep after doing the painting I wouldn't be surprised

The pink sheep are like an acid trip, hope they are still there when we are back

It's a fashion thing...Pink knitware is in this year...you'll all be wearing pink cardies in the Autumn.

Be carefully, check for Covid.
Adam and his Girlfriend went to Boardmasters festival in Newquay, ended up with Covid along with 75 % of the rest of the crowd

I love a festival, especially when pink sheep are there. They are the dirty ones.

Mac and I are leaving Clackets Lane at 9 on the Friday morning. Have the Essex contingent planned where to hook up yet?

Did you take that picture Tony? If you did your doppelgänger is walking toward the grey tent in the foreground

Not coming in the bike this year, so will be going up in van via a meeting in Birmingham to get some work done on the van.

Will you be stopping at the Old Severn Bridge Services for lunch? I can join you there

will be good to see you Bazza, but the combination of Neon Pink sheep and your baby blue van is going to be eye popping after a drink or two.
