Yesterday did a 460 miles ride to Scottish border country, but got a bit carried away and almost reached Edinburgh before turning back for home. Mixed weather, got wet often.

This is on the B6399 towards Hawick, great track and empty apart from occasional bikes and aimless sheep.
The final pic is Jedburgh abbey built by David the first of Scotland in the 13th century.

Indeed, it is and the last time I was there I was sat outside having coffee when one of the locals sat with me and we had a good chinwag for half an hour or so. I’m doing roads round the Elan valley on Saturday, looking forward to being in Wales again, love it.

The Lyn Brianne is the best one as its alot less busy. I pick the route up from Llanwrtyd Wells go as far around ut as i can then loop back through Tregaron to Devils Bridge then come into Elan by the Devils Staircase. Its a great ride. It only gets busy at Devils Bridge. Love that area of Wales.

Wales is a great place, especially good for biking, I think another visit is needed! Meanwhile, here’s a few pics from last year.....
Have a great time.C31E9AEA-6058-4BA4-ADBE-976CB0DB6FF1.pngB4F1FC86-7A82-42E1-9C67-B0809B2ACFF8.png

Yep! I really was surprised today how much traction it still got when I got in some mud. It won't last much longer though.
Well, yeah, there's plenty of rubber on the sides. I would not want to ride that tire on pavement. . . . in the rain.
