Who else from here was over in Wales Yesterday near Tintern abbey / Symonds Yat area ?. Fantasic twisty routes. Saw litterly hundreds of bikers out and about...
To the left of Tintern abbey carpark behind the pub must have been a classic bike meet or something, was off in the other carpark having a fag, watching them all ride in....
Hello also to that Harley driver from Nottinham (I think) who pulled up next to us for a little chat. Nodded to lots of peeps out there got lots of nods back, was driving the firestorm behind a GXSR in convoy. Hope when I flashed and hand signaled to various groups of riders that they slowed when I gave the warning of piggy with speed camera along the straight not too far away from the Abbey, crafty barsteward especially on a nice day like that trying to catch peeps having a spirited drive. Had a nice meal in a local pub, wish I could remember the name, sat in the beer garden to the right watching you lot ride past. We couldn't find that View from Symonds Yat thou, kinda illlusive....... alas that time I was running low on petrol so we headed back to Bristol.

Re: Wales 13/07/08
took that route for work today for the first time and have to admit that i wished i was on the bike, a good biking road in wales is the head of the valley road the a456 i think, fantastic crests,climbs,hairpins and loads of bends
