The Odd Couple

The GS's aren't our only bikes. Yesterday we took the other two out for a days ride. Unlike the BMW's they're a rather mismatched pair as I ride a Blade and LB a Harley Davidson Low Rider. Sometimes we ride together and sometimes I zoom off and either wait for him or get the order in at the next tea stop.

First stop was the delightful Old Station at Erwood. This is a small cafe and craft shop at the disused station on the B4567. We sat on the platform with only the sound of birds for company while enjoying our tea and bara brith. From here it was a short distance to one of our favourite roads,the A481, a minor A road from Builth to the A44 and then through the incredible A44 hairpin bends. Next was the A488 to Knighton which we followed only to Bleddfa for a great lunch at the 100 (mph) House Inn.



This is a pub we can highly recommend. Their open sandwiches cost a fiver and are a full meal. Don't expect any "light bites" here. With enough sustenance on board we headed south to Llandovery, over the mountain



to the Swansea Valley and then via my parents & LB's cousin in Porthcawl to home. It was 185 mile round trip and a full day's enjoyment!
