Hi Storm, Hi Rock Chick, thanks for the welcome, appreciated. Earthwind, what sort of training are you thinking of going for?

Im moving to Holland in a week's time (Eindhoven area) so if anyone passes through you are more than welcome to pop in for a brew-stop. Don't have our own place yet though so will have to be from mid-July onwards.

and ina do you rate the training on the brecon or would you suggest something different, its just that i need to speed up a bit (safely) not race but kee a nice staedy speed to make sure i get to my destination reasonabl and not too harrsssed if you know what i mean i tend to dilly dally abit and feel if i doing a long run i need to keep focussed. still enjoy the view but not take hours linger than everyone esle. Skills would enhance my riding ability and increase my confidence. I hope your trip went well I am seeing if anyone else i know bikers who moght be going to some of the places and then if poss maybe rendvue so dont feel to on my own but its only for three weeks and thats not long atall. I will take paper and charcoal and do some sketching and maybe wter coolur stuff and take digi pics for an exhibition later on in the year i think as well. we will see still got to get the cash together

Hi Earthwind, GOOD luck I rode round wales on my own last year with just an overnight bag, stopped at pubs for b/b. BRILL. Not as far as you are going perhaps but just as much fun, and that is what biking is all about enjoying the weather (hope it's good 4 u) The scenery and the people. RIDE WITH THE WIND. Tony.
