THE BLAENAU BACK-BREAKER
Cast - Robbo, Big Al, Chris, Ron, Carl
Route - Bala, Cerrigydrudion, Betws, Blaenau, Maentwrog, Trawsfynydd, Cwm Prysor, Bala
What went well - Great breakfast in Betws, rain cleared up after brekkie, fantastic hard climbs all day, tail wind on the way back.
What didn't go so well
Al's bike fell over in car park - result - Dura Ace scratched rear mech
Robbo forgot to pay and display - result - worried all day that his car had been clamped
Al's back tyre 'exploded' - result - lads all laughed, Al shit himself
The lads got separated on the Blaenau climb - result - Ronnie took the wrong turn, ended up lost, friendly passing Land Rover had to go and retrieve him
The lads got separated on the Maentwrog climb - result - Big Al did the last 25 miles solo as he opted for the wrong road out of Traws and broke a spoke
All in all a pretty eventful day for the Crapiwheelers, 62 miles 17mph ave
