Cheers deadeye, sometimes your just in the right place at the right time...ill try get some more next week.

If theres any crap weather days ill book it in to get done pronto.thanks for the help.

not for me midden im a kitchen sink and all camper these days mate. the country roads look great noggy, i rode the elan valley last year and missed a lot of the scenery cos you never know when theres going to be a sheep in the road round the next bend.still thats what going somewhere different is all about.

Cheers Red, mighta known youd pop up when someone mentioned sheep eh.....where's CRH mehhhhh!!!...ye i did think about taking the tank bag off, if i'd known how nice the pic would be i would have done, maybe replaced it with a hot female........or a cold sheep!

Camping wise...i. Sure theres a few options where theres showers and toilets etc......sadly im on a no alcohol for 1 year challenge so im not particularly arsed about being near a pub as it should be more about the riding i reckon but that depends on the general concensus....if folk wanna be at the pub then thats what it'll be....if most are happy with a carryout i stead then great.

red98 · « **Reply #55 on:** 15 March 2014, 08:54:28 am »

dont start old CRH off again

...hes gone quiet latley...i`ll have to check dates for the camping trip as its turning out to be a busy summer...not sure how many days holiday or brownie points i have.....

Hedgetrimmer · « **Reply #56 on:** 15 March 2014, 09:01:59 am »

I usually head for the campsite at Llandovery for mid Wales. Café and shops on the doorstep, good shower facilities etc, and on the doorstep for the finest riding

But if anyone has other preferences, I'd be ok with that. Not a great drinker myself, but happy if people want to hit the pub in the evenings too - but this trip is more about giving folks an opportunity to experience the great Welsh roads, so probably not a good idea to get completely wasted in the evenings anyway

I'd be up for a bank holiday weekend to do this as well if there are any takers - if not, I'll probably do a second trip anyway

I am interested in this not sure how busy life is going to be through the summer yet so I will keep an eye on how the plan develops and join in if I can.
