Brecon beast is the name of the event,starts at the running track.
Not a bad event but too many linking lanes for my liking,did it in '06 i think.:)

The climb up to black rocks is as tough as it was when I was 14.
No pacing tonight and it was a bit windy. Had 1 x mule bar en route that just got me home.
Pleased to report after the tyre change t other week no more punctures have darkened my door.
I first rode that route on a Raleigh Arena.
Nice night as well
You got lights on the bike daz or did you manage to fit the miles in early enough.
I have lights MR FowlerQuote:

Its my size isnt it. Remember what I said about roadbikes.
They are a love hate thing for most.
To truly want to be a very good rider you have to love the bike. Id say Ady is a true lover of the bike.
Ive toyed with the idea of doing 300miles a week and seeing what happens after 3 months. after doing 150miles in 2 days i feel okay. Have got my cycle legs and mind back but it wont be long before im waning:(.
Its all in the mind:)
If its not being used Al , spray it with that fancy stuff emma uses on her winter ribbler. Think its called Flick your elbow wax, haha.
12miles:eek:Quote:
