Enjoyed my trip to visit my Dad in Govilon, by Abergavenny, on the 400.  On the way, went via Pontypool,  Varteg,  Blaenavon and over the Blorenge into Govilon.
Dry and sunny on the way home.  I needed that.

I assume you rode up the fiddlers elbow.

Nice run.
I also like the run over the top from Beaufort to Llangyndre

Out and about at the seaside today and a couple of hours sunbathing at Anderby Creek. Water too cold for a swim. Took the little Honda CD250u's. Mike the Bike.... I didn't have fish and chips, I had an ice cream instead

I must admit to always liking the brown.

This If I remember correctly is the lighter gold and  its lost its candy effect some what but does look good showing its age.....in my opinion anyway .

Went on a 90 mile rideout to Porthcawl with a dozen guys from the bike club.  I'd almost forgotten what fish and chips taste like.🍟🍦

How did you manage that??
I thought the Welsh government had ruled no more than 5 miles.

Glad you enjoyed it
