Rode up the Pico Veleta in the Sierra Nevada. Its closef to motor vehicles at 8500ft which is a shame. But wow what a road - as good at Monte Giovo and Gavia.

Also the Alcataz to Albacete road; sensational.

Easy enough if you heat the screws up before trying to undo them as they're held in with threadlock. I did mine today. Heated the screws up with a soldering iron.
I could change my opinion, but then we'd both be wrong.

cheers Gra...yeh I heated up a big screwdriver and then held it on for a few seconds but I suspect it wasn't good enough and mainly that my screwdrivers weren't small enough.....im loathe to attempt it again this year now

Yesterday, met up with Dazza, in beautiful Herefordshire,

Did the TT to Newtown,then Nick picked a cracker of a scenic route over the mountains,stunning views.

Out to the coast,Mclnthlth,,haha,,spelt wrong,,,then down towards Aberystwyth and back along the A44 to crossgates.

Good weather ,not hot though,

Rode over to Erwlon campsite at Llandovery on Saturday, met with slim and dazza on Sunday for a good ride, then enjoyed two more days of good riding weather in Wales before heading home in the pissing rain today. I'll let the pictures do the talking:

Fitted a new exhaust, sounds amazing, and when I took out the baffle, it sounds even more amazing ;-)
