Well as promised to myself, with having this week off, 350miles and 9 hours later, I've been across Wales and back today!

This was the planned route but decided on a change to reduce the miles/time and was worth it: Cheltenham
Evesham (drop off foo fighter ticket) Pershore
Ledbury
Ross on Wye
Monmouth
Abergavenny
Sennybridge
Llandovery (stopped at west end cafe)
Lampeter
Aberaeron
Aberystwyth
Newtown
Crossgate
Bulith wells
Abergavenny
Ross on Wye
Gloucester
Cheltenham

Instead of going to Aberaeron and Aberystwyth, I went to Tregaron and devils bridge on the B4343. That little b road is awesome on the bike, no chance in a car as there's buses and 4x4s using the road. Back home now and god I got a sore ass on my street triple at times, had to stop for 5 a few times!

Sure, but next time I'd need to leave alot earlier as I didn't head off till 10.30 and got home at 8.30, so 8am start
Weekdays would prob be quieter so if you or others fancy coming....
