Something for your diary.

Sounds like fun and handy for the Midlands, Wales and Gloucestershire. I went for a little ride to the cafe at Bringsty this afternoon. Some lovely roads and a nice cuppa. What more would you want?

Was that Bringsty common? Some long sweeping bends on that road, we've camped at the small CC site at Bromyard downs, good mushroom hunting area half filled a carrier bag once

That's it Snail. What was the Junk Shop is now called Bringsty Vintage Living and prices accordingly. :) The lady in the cafe was telling me that the building was originally a garage and they built custom bikes. I think this was possibly pre-WW2. The A44 is a lovely road and bikers in the Worcester area like nothing better than to head out towards Rhayder, have breakfast at Crossgates and come back on the A456/A443. I recently edited a helmet cam video of that route, to play at a funeral. Old age and not an accident .

Ah yes, Crossgates was used as a service area on the Welsh hill rally 4x4, when we were into our landrovers, there is a well known rally circuit near Llangurig called Sweet Lamb miles of off road, rally tracks.
Do you normally go west when out for a ride?

If it's a short ride I tend to because it's straight into the countryside once I leave Droitwich.
