Yeah unfortunately for me I didn't check the track that carefully on the initial route, I was fully expecting to take the BCM route and was a bit disconcerted when I didn't recognise it. I shall make sure I do that next time.
Painscastle was my own fault - I knew what I was letting myself in for there, I just thought I'd handle it better. Still I got round so wth

I'm recovering a bit now and starting to feel the benefits, I thoroughly enjoyed my commute this morning on the new Etap - whizzy speed on the flats of central Cardiff - it's just as quick as my BMC I reckon

Should be even quicker when the legs have fully recovered.
Those who've seen my Facebook pics will have seen the selfies where I tried to look cheerful. My better half commented that in fact I look thoroughly pissed off

Pereceptive, I wasn't a happy bunny at that point
I might be up for that Rabbit, not sure I'd be much of a companion to you on that ride, more of a burden slowing you up i think. Get me on the flat, then I'll show you who's boss

I rather like the idea of a forum group perm you had earlier also
