Thanks Big Al and family for a great 'meet', at one of the best sight-sites I have stayed at.


Great weekend and fantastic routes, great company, and despite the soaking on the way home ready for more.
Thanks to Tefflon and Baldy for the run home guide.

4pm and the real rain has started..... that was close.

Pictures later when my phone charges......

Fantastic weekend! B)
Thanks Big Al and crew for putting it on.
Thanks to Q-Plate and Bushman for helping me out when my stove wouldn't heat anything, and eventually gave up the ghost. :sick:

Maggie glad to hear you've got on the boat for home. You have one hell of a spirit of Adventure!

That was a great run out on Saturday, next year I'll endeavour not to break the GS the day before the meet - the DRZ handled it well though - although my arse might argue the point on that :laugh:

Great weekend !!!
Thanks again to Big Al and his crowd for all the effort they put in to make Shure the whole weekend went off well.
It only started raining for me 10 miles from home, (glad Scott and I got away when we did) we stopped at LLandovery for breakfast then went our separate ways at Abergavenny.
Glad to hear Tez got home safely, (we have all been there and it's never nice)
get well soon.
look forward to seeing all the photo's.
See you all on Exmoor in December.

Well done Maggie maybe we should now all make the effort to get to you.

I'll second all the positive remarks - friendly Welsh hospitality, in a fantastic location, well planned ride out (split second timing for a 14.00 lunch stop), 2 cauldrons (too big for a pot) of Cawl and more raffle prizes than a Readers Digest give away.
Matthew's first 'Adventure' and thoroughly enjoyed it apart from the 'off road section' (lol) leading into the campsite.
A massive thanks to Big Al and all his Team, they know who they are. Looking forward to the next one
