Hi Steve, been meaning to write for a while as Sue and I have been Welsh weekend regulars for some time.

I would have liked to have come along this year too, I liked the idea of split rides to give everyone the choice of pace (saves Sue telling me to slow down!).
However I can't manage both the Welsh and Borders weekends so will have to give the Welsh one a miss this year. Chris and Simon are in the same boat.

I didn't want you thinking your efforts in organising all this were not appreciated :), will have retired by next year and can then go to as many as I want!

Hope the weather God plays ball for you.

Cheers

Ian

Hi Steve

Booked in at the Wild Pheasant for the Saturday (at the moment can't do the Friday) so please add me to your list for the ride and meal.
Happy to help out as a sweeper if you need, as I have spent many years riding on the Welsh roads as you do when living in Shropshire.

Regards John

Can't make it this year Steve.

The missus will be away in Portugal so I'll be on dog sitting and teenage party prevention duty.

Bummer.

Sadly guys my fears have been realised. Whilst not redundant they're trying to get me to accept some "compromise agreement" (which I feel is derisory at the mo)

I'm off sick due to the stress at the mo' the first time in 4 years I've been off.
