Just to let my mis-spent yoof out of the bag..... Is there still a good mushroom field out the back of the sportsmans arms? Is the pub even still there? Been many years since I was last around that way.

Snap, the very same mucka, regular stop for me that cafe, not any more though £2 furra coffee, used to be 80 pence  Huh i'm sticking me panniers on and either carrying a flask/stove in future..

 

Protection on the Himmy really about the same as the Tdm i would say, least with that screen on, it's as i bought it, does a good job, i know they dont appeal to you but it's a right hoot in Wales, more average speed cameras than ever so it's fit for purpose...

Er dunno Dave, cant say i even noticed if the Sportman is still there i was going so fookin fast  Lol i'll look next time fer sure, 60mph down to the A5 now with ASC....bollocks..

Took some pickies of unusual stuff as  I got loads of bike pics. the start up of 5 classic bikes with megaphone exhausts was amazing though.
