Hi Gents and Ladies,

I emailed MBUK a while back about forums and my letter got printed this month (Feb 2009) so here I am! - be gentle.

If anyone read the letter, my bike is finally finished, finally finished the front brake enough for it to stop me. I still need to fit the 203mm adapter and new 203mm disc.

Who's around South Wales who go MTBing then?

Cheers
Alex

    I'm not a local, but since I twigged to the proximity of Afan & Cwm Carn to Cardiff I've been pestering the wife to go visit her parents in Grangetown. Should be down that way at Easter.

    Welcome to the forum.
    It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

    I've bought a new bike....ouch - result
    Can I buy a new bike?...No - no result

    I live like two seconds from strangetown, and the missus lived all her life there.

    I love cardiff.

    MTB does not get better than here, unless you live in the rockies or something.

    I am trying to get to afan.

    Yes laugh now, I have been riding in cardiff for 4 years, been to cwmcarn but not afan. :o

    So trying to get up there asap.

    :arrow: Im with stupid.
