Sir Fallsalot Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Decided to go to the vale of Glamorgan for a run this afternoon not far from me and just to check out some lanes i haven't ridden in years First lane i wanted to check out was just off a place called Bynsadler nice easy lane starts by crossing the M4 And then followed by a nice easy dirt track Next is in Bonvilston a grass track soft in places, easy enough today but can be quite slippery when wet This one is in the same area there's big money down this way you can tell when your driveway looks like this 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Why is mud, verdant greenery and blossom just so good to look at? The animal side of us must be preprogrammed to like it. Great pics, would have loved to ridden that. Damn cold today though even with the sunshine, definitely a heated grips day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boboneleg Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Nice one Fred, I've done those loads of times as they're in Paul's back yard. You're right about the money people down there, they tried to close loads of those lanes over the years, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Fallsalot Posted May 2, 2021 Author Share Posted May 2, 2021 Stopped to say hello to these fellers This one was giving me the eye Had a little more off this one Stopped to have a look at the church in St Nicholas nice to see a lot of the new graves there are of people who died in their 80's and 90's It looks a bit odd because i had to take a panoramic to fit it all in And this is the war memorial just across the green from the church And down to the ehh Downs where they use this to transmit the shit we have on TV And another nice easy lane Onto Wenvoe to look at the next couple of lanes i wanted to check out all nice and easy with no bloody gates Hard to believe this is just outside the big city Cardiff A bit rocky down here Into Llancarfan another beautiful village i chickened out at this ford it looked bloody deep And this one looked easy but it was like riding on ice concrete covered in slime Stopped for a drink and the local plod to check me out when a scene from quadrophenia past by mods everywhere i snapped these when they pulled in for fuel I would have chased after them and kicked them off but i was going this way Found this place in Boverton whata waste i tried to get in but it was a bit too public for me to jump over the fence Had to cut my ride short after the last lane ther was a big log i had to squeeze past and new my footrest would hit it so took my foot off but didn't expect it to catch my gear leaver After that i could only select first and neutral so started limping home but first was soooo slow pulled over to see if i could sort it. While lying on the floor somebody stopped on a Harley it was someone that recognised me from work and of all the people to stop it had to be him. He bought his Harley about a year ago and when he told me i said to him don't expect me to stop if i see you broken down on the side of the road which he had great pleasure in reminding me what a cunt I bent it enough with the little tools i had to get it selecting all the gears so got home ok 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Bank holiday weekend, probably heading to Weston super mare for a ruck. Or most likely now the old bastards need a lie down after accidentally getting up before midday 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
