What a great weekend!! Cheers everyone!

Well said, big thanks to Graham and Ann for organising it all, and to Dave Hinde, Elaine, Caroline and Lindsey in support cars. Always morale boosting to see them driving past.

I just want to say thanks to everyone who rode with me over the past two days, especially on Saturday. I've never ridden that distance, never mind that terrain before, and they got me through it. I want to say a special thank you to Rich Munro, who tirelessly kept us together, gave advice and paced us from Denbigh to Capel Curig.

Great weekend!!

Yes, a truly exceptional weekend!

Fantastic organisation by Graham & Ann - a big thank you to you both.

Thanks also to all in our little Grupetto, with particular mention going to the excellent pacesetters - Rich & Kev.

Felt really good today but legs starting to seize up now - I might be using the lift at work tomorrow!

What a fantastic weekend! And chapeau to the gruppetto for staying together, that takes some organisation and cooperation and made the ride so much more enjoyable/tolerable for so many people. Big thanks to Graham and Ann and all the drivers and supporters. It was lovely to see Mark and the Astles family there too, the weekend was so much part of Dave's annual cycling calendar. Garry your jokes got me over the Sportsman yesterday despite their questionable quality, so thank you!
Ady..love the blog!

It was a great weekend and good fun being in the autobus, where there was a really good team spirit. Far better than struggling along on your own for the last 30 miles or so. I think that Kev did more of the work than me yesterday, but everyone got back together.

I was particularly pleased for Woody, Nigel and Alan Silver who all completed it for the first time and well done to Andrew who kept going to the end. It was worth all the work to see how chuffed Alan was when he got back to Moss Farm.

As others have said, it wouldn't happen without Graham and Ann's fantastic organisation and also to those who helped with the support - Steve Thomas, Dave Hinde, Caroline and Rob. Also thanks to Les for fixing my helmet.

One of the best yet Graham with probably some of the best conditions we have ever known. I know you put a lot of effort into this as usual and it showed as everything ran very smoothly and I think a lot of people enjoyed the stunning scenery and the conversation although many spent a lot of their time concentrating on the wheel in front, so couldn't take in the scenery and were unable to speak most of the time............the joys of cycling!

Cheers

Dave
