SimonB will have to make his own tea this time.

Must say, it was jolly decent of you to make the effort last time!

Go Joolz !!

[Bairdy]

 

You won't be.  You'll be back at Chepstow smoking your pipe before they get to Knighton

 Ah, Knighton - that place where you can stop for a rewarding ice-cream.

As if the previous 15 miles with over 1000 foot of downhill weren't reward enough 

I might just loin you for that bit!

[chillmoister]

I had to miss The Dean last year for similar reasons, caused me to have to ride The Elenith on fixed.

As if the previous 15 miles with over 1000 foot of downhill weren't reward enough 

Now that sounds like my kinda cycling 

The first year I did the BCM there was a socking great headwind up the valley and had to pedal all the way to Knighton

2008 was like that.

Reg.T (want to be there, but can't this year - K&SW instead)

Might do both.  Depends on my knees  Actually it depends on the weather on the BCM.   I've found in the past if the BCM is bad weather it takes more than a week for me to fully recover.  And I'd have to be fully recovered to do the K&SW

If I'm not riding the K&SW I will probably help at the finish or something

[vorsprung]

LEE (Too Fat & I think I'm allergic to the sleet on PenYPass)

I don't think I've ever experienced sleet on the Pen-Y-Pass on the BCM or any other ride.  The worst was during the Irish Mail last year, it was very very wet but not sleety

[simonp]

I've got updated OS maps now. This means I will finally re-plot the section of my gps track approaching Talgarth to actually follow the road and I can get all the incorrect roundabout waypoints sorted out.

If I remember.
