You really need to see this place!!!!! Told ya  Yes some wonderful views up the Reservoir road and also Mountain road. Itinerary looks sound too! Am familiar with most all the route so can if needed lead a second group should there be enough folks to split the party at any time. Count me in, baring torrential deluge or natural disasters. PS, Great name for the run!  |

I'M DEFINITELY COMING ON THE RUN It's only 1hr 30min and 70 miles to the start point ( if I've found the right lay-by on the map ) Incentives. I think it is the Northerly of the two lay-bys on the west side of road, though it maybe whichever one the Tea Wagon is in on the day?  |

Looks odds on that we'll be joining the run rather than Silverstone.
Just got back from the Imp weekend that included parking up 30 or so Imps in Market Sq in Llandovery as part of the sheep festival - bumped into Modf for a chat.
Modf - the young guy I told you about with the BMW engine in his white Imp? - wrote it off on a roundabout at Brecon on the way back from Epynt, luckily not seriously hurt.
We got back with a bodge holding the alternator in place - so if you find a 4 inch bolt between Llanwrtyd and Cynhordy it's ours ! Luckily we caught the issue before the lack of cooling fried the engine. New bolt now in place with nylock nut.. lesson learned.

Looking forward to it.
Mind you sitting in a bus shelter in the rain is preferable to spending the day with my sister in law so don't go canceling it.
