Yep I'm there!!! Just not early at Michealwood... I think I'm at work till 2am. I'm gonna see if I can find a way of getting into the Southboud Strensham Services without out having to do a 18 mile detour... if not we'll have to see about meeting the guys somewhere else. But I'm still not going over the bridge!
There is definately more than one Talybont.... so you know - it's the one near Brecon.

won't be that early ourselves, this is just an idea for everyone else, hows about meeting at J11 gloucester, then A40, theres a laybye close, and then cutting thru the forest missing ross-on-wye, and getting back on the A40 at monmouth, it's about 8.2 miles further for you guys comeing southwards, strensham difficult to get too comeing northwards, unless we meet J1 M50 roundabout sliproad. food for thought, but i'll go with the flow.

Man...I would love to join you guys ! You are making me 'home sick'. I grew up spending many a weekend in Tal-y-Bont. Beautiful part of the world and makes for a wonderful ride. Enjoy.

I'll have a look at a map.... in the morning! Been a long day at work, and will probably come up with some bollox if I look now. Just not to early....I'm at work till 2 am on Friday night/Staurday morning...
Just remember though guys.....while this year I'm a better (read faster) rider, I'll still be running my bike in so will have to take it steady...

And to join in, I close the garage door tonight caught the top box on the Suzuki and pushed the bike forward, making it come off its side stand. It decided to rest it little yellow body on the exhaust of my america crushing it.  . So I will have to put the original pipes back on and keep a look out for a spare right side pipe off a speedmaster. Bl@@dy Japanese bikes, with crap side stands

Teeheehee....  Sorry didn't mean to laugh.... I have a set of SM pipes - they were Simon's. I got them in case the baffle removing job was too loud for the MOT. You can have them for what I paid plus postage if you want. Just have to post them cos they're at the olds.... I never got around to getting them down here and they only live around 15 miles or so from Simon.

Right then...I've finally got around to loking at a map.... I have three trains of thought. 1 I go and see if I can find a way into the southbound services at Strensham (the services just north of the M50 junction). However other than today I'm at work everyday till Saturday, and I don't think I'm gonna get the time to do that.... and today I can't, I'm off later to see a band in Wolverhampton...but I'm meeting the mate I'm going with in Cardiff.... long story. So the crux is....I don't think I'm gonna have time to do that. 2 We meet at the Little Chef where I met up with you last year... I think it was the one near Whitchurch on this map but I may be wrong... 3 Someone else comes up with somewhere else!  I'd be happy to meet Steershead at Michealwood services at around 11 and then meet the rest of you at the Little Chef for lunch... That sound like a plan...? The rest of you can get your own way there!!!!
