Al,

Bring the bike Andy.... Just had a call from Steve and I'm meeting him in Aberdovey at 10am on Saturday, we'll have a quick drool over the kit and then head off to the hills for a bike ride... We'll expect you to join us too!


I'll see what I can do. Where are you planning on going for the ride?

I need to bear in mind that I have to keep Jules entertained!

Andy

Maybe I should have kept the fact that I need to keep Anna and morgan entertained too before making plans!!!

I don't mind where we ride.

Guys

I am down all weekend, Friday to Monday but I dont have a bike. I am however happy to sit on the back on one your bikes in a baby seat and see how you get on. Maybe I should go fishing instead.

What time are you meeting to do Cadair?

We are planning to spend some time at Aberdovey first at the demo day and then will probably have to head somewhere where Jules and possibly Anna and Morgan can be entertained as well.

Right, bike packed and ready to go.

Next need to decide whether to bring any big windsurfing kit just incase there's enough wind for Jules to get out for a cruise around the estuary!

is there a chance that there will be any big kit at the demo? As it looks there will be no chance of trying any short boards.

true....but if you try and take your hire car up cadair, you'll probably lose your deposit....even more so after 15 pints.

I would think that the Boardwise demo van will be loaded with bigger kit given the forecast.

Not sure what the importers will have with them but this is the improvers/advanced demo so there should be big freeride kit for improvers as well as the small stuff.

Boardwise Demo was OK... Lots of nice kit to look at but not a puff of wind, so we didn't hang around long.

Steve, AndyW and I headed off to do the climachx trail and unexpectedly caught Graham and Jon up at the top of the first climb. We thought they were on Cadair and apparently they had been but decided better of it and came to Mach instead, leaving Nick on Cadair on his own!.

We had a nice little ride around the Climachx trail then a surf at Ynyslas. Not a bad day out.
