October Run 2009 - Building Bridges

[Apache]

We will be meeting in the large car park in the centre of Rhayader. You will be coming down the A483 and then cut across on the A44 at Crossgates.

When you get into the centre of Rhayader, at the clock tower, head north on the A470 and then immediately take the B4518 Saint Harmon Road, you will see a large car park immediately on your right.

Have a look on multimap - I can't find a post code for the car park!

Anyone who hasn't got my mobile - pm me yours and I'll ring you.

What sort of time Andy? Might, just might, be able to get PM off.

On the negative side I'll be banging out on Saturday night cos I just have too much to do on Sunday. Yes, stuff I've been putting off but now it's back to bite me in the ar5e...

I'll be there.

I have Friday PM off, so should be able to meet the rest of you in the afternoon.

Brakes tomorrow, will sort speedo and balljoint boot split on Sunday. If I cant sort the speedo, I'll connect it to something else so it moves on the brake test rollers!

We need to be leaving the car park by 3pm at the latest - so those of you traveling a long way - LEAVE EARLY! I will be there by 2pm

I'll get details of Saturdays campsite up later on - I'm just waiting for confirmation before I post.

As per usual, we'll have a BBQ on the Friday night so bring some food - I'll bring a bbq and coals but would happily accept extra coals.........

If you're not bothered with the bbq there is a pub in the village nearby that does meals.

I'll sort out food in a local pub for Saturday - I'll post a menu later.

APACHE - so you're running scared of Happy Valley? Or you could do a night run......

We could do Crychan Forest if peeps want to - it's not too long and only a couple of miles from the campsite





And I actually know my way around there now!

This is where we are staying on the Saturday night

It's where we stayed last year - I have tried other sites but they are either not taking tents or are full anyways. It's OK here but I for one will NOT be walking to the pub across the fields after last years debacle!

It is £6 if you sleep in your truck (on your own), or £5 per head for two people in a tent (???)

I have contacted the pub for a menu so we can pre order - I will post it up as soon as I have it. The food and beer at the pub is very lovley indeed - everyone enjoyed it last year.

I am up for that even if we do get lost

I'll second that! Great pub. Good food, good atmosphere, decent beer. It was absolutely bucketing down last year and when about a dozen of us decended on them soaking wet and proceeded to dump wet clothes everywhere, they didn't bat an eye!

Crychan at night then! I have plenty of light. Andy, will bring those Cibies for you.

Good one on the cibies - I'll mount them onto the front of the roof rack and into the power pack under the bonnet.

Looking forward to meeting you lot and pub grub and beer sounds braw.
