Grasshopper Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Hello Everyone... I have been away for a bit, so I am not up on the latest, I hope everyone is well. I managed to get out on the Himalayan for a really nice ride on Friday. Great autumn weather. I made a short video from the ride....(no 360 camera if that matters ) Check it out if you are bored.... 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Fallsalot Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Had a great ride with the TRF again yesterday perfect weather for trail riding, we started with 11 riders then went down to 10 and later went up to 13 which went back to 10 and then went up to 11 again as we bumped into other riders and a few dropped out on route. We were in the Pontypool and Usk area again, everything is totally different after the recent rain we've had didn't have time to take photos as the ride was flowing so nicely. Only incident for me was I dropped the bloody bike fooling about on the way to the meeting point not 10 minutes from my house and bent the radiator. I think the rad brace i fitted payed for themselves yesterday. I had time to take this as there's someone laying down in the stream ahead Dreaded roman road in Mamhilad again those rocks were slippery This is what almost fucked my rad, i was practising riding over it when my footrest caught the piece of concrete sticking up and stalled the bike there was nowhere to put my foot down so the bike fell over landing on that large piece of concrete with the radiator taking the full impact. Assessing the damage when i got home I think without the brace on i would have been pushing it home 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All fixed i took a trip up to find the bit of missing plastic and fused it back together with my soldering iron. Also pulled the rad back to somewhere near to its original position cant straighten it out properly without removing it and that means draining the cooling system so it will do for now Before After 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Spent the weekend at The Aviator in Sywell. I’m a bit of a sucker for time pieces and its an old art deco officers mess that was so well looked after they kept the original Art Deco fixtures n fittings and turned it into a hotel. Its still a working airfield and has a museum attached (shut this morning so cant tell you what thats like). I loved the old furniture and architecture. After a lovely ride in the sunshine across the Cotswolds it was a great place to stop. The food menu does not do the place justice at all, it was well executed but very basic pub menu (gammon egg n chips, burger n chips etc etc) but they said they had to pull the menu right back because just like other hotels they cant find staff and have to keep it as simple as possible. Cheaper than most premier inns but much much more interesting. https://www.aviatorhotel.co.uk/ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my idea as it's expensive and run down from what I'm told, bloody kids. So this weekend we'll be planning what to take with us. We'll def be stopping off for alcohol. Which centre? Its like going on holiday to your local council run sports centre, rubbish food and overpriced activities. Took mine three times under duress because thats where their school friends were going. Only thing I can say thats helpful is take flip flops for the pool showers because the changing rooms have that slippery slime on them that you cant bear to wipe on your towel and who wants wet verruca sludge on their feet Good luck 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
