and a bit o'gravel. It was then that the reality of the situation struck us, " bolt on wheels!" I exclaim, An exclamation that went soaring over everyone elses heads, "So!" was the coral like reply. Wellllllll, said I with as much dignity as I could muster, I ain't got any spanners! 
So a bit of leg work and I was back at Afan Argoed, bike in the van and hot wheeled it back to the Refresh, tube quickly mended and piece of cardboard over the hole in the tyre, we continued our journey up to Glyncorrwg and the ever beckoning brick and a cup o'coffee. On our arrival at the montain bike centre, we noticed two PTWCC kit clad riders leaving via the path past the ponds, we only caught their backs so I coudn't quite see who it was. Anyway a 20 minute sit down and as I say a piece
of toast and a coffee and we set off on the home leg back to the Refresh. What a cracking day for a liesurely ride in some of the most beautiful mountain vistas in the world.
