A Bridgend high street (Adare street for those that know)

GP!!!!! Love it! The L5 bike is like a BBC bagel making its pictoral debut with the many hotspots in Wales... keep in mind, you'll have to post a phonetic pronunciation guide with any future welsch names (your high school is called what!?!?) in the captions.... Hope they quit charging you the tourist price on beer soon! Gotta get rid of the hoosier accent you picked up!
Sweet pictures! Thanks for sharing. Just remember which side of the road to ride on.
Hey, that's not one of the missing BKB bikes is it?
Excellent! Thanks for the visuals!
Awesome, thanks for posting.
When do you start your job in Liverpool?

This is hilarious. Totally like the BBC bagel, Schaack!
Did you actually ride around to all those places?? I don't understand how you got up those hillier-than-Bloomington hills on the 46x18....it's kind of like boltinghouse everywhere there. Also, did you off-road it on the shortcut path to the pheasant? I'm impressed.
Also, Geraint, remember what happened when you went on one of your first rides in Bloomington--approaching 37? Remember which way to look first before crossing the road!!!
Thanks for the local pics. I think it tops Bloomington easy!
Nice! Man, you're gonna' be missed. Take care

Great post Geraint and awesome pictures. They make we want to head back to the UK. We're gonna miss you when we come to visit for L5 this year.
