Just over 1 month to go guys so get yourselves booked in so we can order the T-shirts.
If you book to late you may have to go without :eek

trying to get hold of rich,

I fear I may have jumped onto this too late?????

Any chance of still attending if I can get it off work?

Yes of course , you can even sign up on the day , but you may miss out on some nice goodies as we are putting an order in for T-****rs and stickers next week.
If you can get your deposit it before then along with the papaerwork you will be on the list, there will also be plenty of others there that you can join and make a team.

HI matey,

I am 100% skint at the moment due to having to get the bike back on the road, but really dont want to miss out on goodies :)

Any ideas?

Will see if I can botch it off work. I may come along anyway :)

Good to catch up again with you Rich and well done to all, Photos are being added to the new look website with more being added over the next few days.

For those that may find it difficult riding on lanes the harder ones will be marked up for you to avoid, don't forget you choose the route you take so you can do it all on the tarmac.

It's all about the taking part and having fun with like minded people with no pressure to get all the waypoints.

You will also be taken out on the Sunday with local riders to show you some of the best views, roads and lanes in the part of Wales.

Please get your deposits in asap �15 per entrant, we need to know numbers to get prizes and presents ordered way in advance

I can't enter this year for one reason and another but intend being there with camera in hand.
