TD has a 3 minute connection at BHM to get a train that arrives at 9:20 - its only if he cannot get this he will get in at 10:20.
Obviously if he is early we won't be leaving until everyone turns up!

I think I'll get there for 9:20 and have a hearty breakfast whilst waiting.
Any recommendations? Morrison's is just nearby, but there is a bus station café that gets a good review on t'internet. Pumpkin on the Station - I have a bite card for 20% discount there, so is this an option too?

Cafe in the station sucks (well it did 5 years ago the last time I used it)
Could just go to the burger van up at B&Q, yum (infact I might do so myself!)

I'll probably have breakfast before I leave the house and just grab a snack when I'm there.

The bus station caff is pretty good, but the best caff in Hereford - by some distance - is round the back of the Green Dragon hotel, just off the big square in the centre and is called Flying Monkey cafe (honest, it is). It's not cheap, but the food is excellent.

Did the Gospel Pass 150 audax (its 160 really) earlier this year, really enjoyed it . The descent from the top of Gospel pass down to Abergavenny is amazing, just goes on and on. Take your camera.

The decent do Aber is good because its long and down - but I dont like how narrow, closed in and wet/muddy it is even if its a good day. It is also (despite the above) a very good return climb - its a long one but its fast

A genteel ride thru the countryside could be just the ticket then
This will be a joint production between the South Wales chapter and the chatroom so it wont be fast.
I'm interested in this ride - what kind of pace will it be ? (In reality)
(I wouldn't want to keep others waiting)
