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 :)

Yeah the bridge bit was cool. What bike were you on?
I was on a blue canyon green bar tape. -
Haha nice to meet you and nice to be able to help out. I really hate tyre levers so have developed my technique over years of cursing and swearing.
Sat morning was fun catching up (I started late) and then riding with some peeps though early on had some dickhead get out of his car presumably to have a pop because we were riding two abreast, but then immediately got back in when he saw us close up.
Sat afternoon/eve was really good - I'd dried off and the scenery was lovely, took some pics but phone can't do the light justice.
Sunday morning was a bit annoying, seeing how long I would give it before putting a jacket on. I think after two hours I was starting to get a bit chilly so caved in and then of course the sun comes back out.
The manned controls were great. Had a good sleep after a decent feed. Was a bit disappointed the Apple Cart cafe wasn't open Sun morning as I was really looking forward to a warm coffee after all the rain.

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?
