just a small idea of raising money for cancer sufferers has gone massive for me on this one.

I had a big write up in the south wales argus, Ive has 100 posters given out around south Wales, ive had posters sent to 100 shops and garages in Gwent. And ive had a page on facebook, rideout and welshbikers so I dont even want to think of the amount of people who are coming along to help raise money for this cause.

The meeting point is at Newport Football Stadium (1 minute up the dual carriageway from South wales superbikes) it is signposted off junction 24 (coldra) to Newport international sporting village the Veledrome, Sunday 7th August 2011 at 0845-09.45, BUT, I am going to put direction arrows all the way to the event off juction 24...

Get there if poss any time after 8.30 to help us line up in groups of 5 bikes and to pay the £10 donation fee and registrate.

The route is from Newport stadium up the A449 to Abergavenny (27 miles)for a stop and a cuppa for 1 hour, (there is a a petrol station here too) Then we are off through the  Brecon mountain roads to Llandovery (50 miles) for  dinner in the west end cafe for 2 hours, then we will be making our way back the same route where everybody can disperse their own ways to their home.

Please stay with the group and help our convoy have a safe journey and a good day out

Hi, I am new to this site.  I joined to find rides for me and my son who would be riding pillion.  I, like everybody else, have been affected by cancer in the family and am a regular donator to cancer research, marie curie and macmillan charities.  Are pillions welcome to attend this ride?   I assume there would not be an additional £10 for my 10yr old son to accompany me?    My name is Ryan and my son is Rhys and we live in Maesteg (Bridgend area),  We are riding on a 96' Model  ZX9-R, I have been off the road for over 2 years and am landed to be back on the road (even on this 96' model).  I look forward to meeting with some other bikers and doing my bit for a worth while charity.   See you all on the day.

[markfredrickson]

no probs for a pillian, its £10 per bike. I have a burger van coming along so meet any time after 08.30 to line up and depart at 10.

Thanks for clearing the £10 per bike charge for me markfredrickson, we're really looking forward to it and I'm glad there has been a lot of support shown for this worth while cause.

Thank you to blueracer for welcoming me to the forum. 

Hope all goes well  and we all have a good day out.
see you all early Sunday morning.

hi all, lets try and not be fazed by the british weather this weekend, the met office has stated that we are having a mainly cloudy Saturday night and Sunday in Brecon areas is going to be cloudy with the chance of light rain showers, whilst it could be raining in Newport at the meet up it is forcast to be better the higher we go through the day, so lets not let the weather put us off.
There will be a burger van set up at Newport stadium from 8am, and at the other end in Llandovery the West end cafe will have hot over the counter fresh food for us to buy after mid day when we arrive there.
The stadium is off the M4 at Junction 24 and head towards the brown sign (newport international sporting village) it takes you there, please get there early as poss to help us sign in and get your bikes lined up for depart. Cant wait

I'll be there m8 but cant leave home till 9am. so will get there as soon as pos.
