Sorry I can't join you Kev but the section from Chepstow to Hereford sounds good as its a few years since I have been to the Wye Valley, have a good journey

pitty, that section is the bit that i always look 4ward to on this run in either direction, im sure i will have a good un as long as moggy wants to behave

Sounds like a good run, enjoy
