Daz. The lads normally go through Newtown and stop off at McDonald's. You should be able to meet them there if The Raven is too far.

Re: Tankslap Wales Rideout - 19th August
Well the forecast for Wednesday has been rain for days now and it doesn't seem to be changing as they still confirm rain pretty much all day tomorrow.
On that basis I m going to give it a miss as pretty pointless imo.
If others go have fun and hopefully the weather will be ok.

That's a shame Blade, can I not twist yer arm... Been looking forward to this for ages
We could meet a little earlier and do a shorter route, the forecast looms dodgy for the afternoon after 3-4ish

Looks like Daz scared them off. Must be the fear of the SX powa

Sorry Deano I m out mate. It was always provisional on weather for me and every forecast I look at is wet all day. If if it was the odd shower like last time I would come but it's pretty much guaranteed wet all day from what I can see.
You and Motodaz can still go mate. You know the route I had planned as we did it last month alternatively if you want a shorter route try one of edski 675 north Wales routes.

I wouldn't mind trying a few of Ed's roads but the forecast actually seems to be getting worse! It's gone from light rain to Heavy rain. I'd risk it if it was 50/50 but it's looking pretty bleak!

No idea what has happened to decent summer weather in July and especially August. Since we moved to our current house 9 years ago every August has had poor or, at best, indifferent weather.

Sorry for late reply, been on lates," looking after someone's world"...
I'll look to go up to the Raven in the morning and see what the weathers doing and have a breakfast...if it is looking dire can always do the ride another day..
If anyone just fancies breakfast it would be nice to put faces to names..
