  • Wander Wye went pretty well, except a broken spoke and a soaking on Sunday morning.
    Wind was a pain throughout, didn't seem to get the tailwind we were due from Saturday felt more generally gusting on Sunday.
    How did others go?

  • Had a Travel Lodge booked at Devizes so the section from Chepstow to there was really cold! They closed the Severn bridge to traffic as well so going across with no one else on was pretty cool.

    Sunday was ok apart from a puncture but was impressed by @hippy strong thumbs when he took my tyre off the rim :)

  • Other than spending too long faffing at Chepstow in the morning, and getting caught in rain, I felt pretty fresh at finish. Enjoyed seeing a bit of wildlife muntjac deer, bats and the alike. Poppies were stunning, and the sunset on the climb from Blwch was fantastic.

    Also the realisation that the frame bag I made in a rush on Thursday wouldn't let me get at bottles. Luckily had velcro straps.

  • Good to meet you again - it's usually the other way around though - seeing people in cycling kit and then not recognising them in normal clothes ;)

    What wheels are you running? If you're gonna race on them will make sense to have them properly trued and tensioned if one has gone they'll be out.
