WRT Lonely Hearts Club

Post by Chew »

Just over a week to get your entry in for this years WRT, but some of you may still be on the fence as you may not have anyone to ride with and that may be putting you off.

Well that would be a shame wouldn’t it, as you’d miss out on the tea and cake.

Well we all had to start somewhere, so this year i’m offering to take out a group of people and show you around Mid Wales and pass on a few tips*.


Drop me a note and we’ll sort something out.


*don’t get your hopes up, this wont be alot :wink:

I'll offer my services too.
I've already got one slow rider to cart over the hills so if anybody else wants riding buddy's feel free to PM me.

No, in fact it'll make a great first trip. Despite popular opinion ... the supplied GR aren't there to catch you out, they're there to make route planning easier. :wink:

I was so looking forward to the WRT this year but was on the fence because I didn't fancy doing it solo

Are you after a certain level of fitness, as long as you're prepared to wait on some of the climbs I'll be up for this.

(I will try to improve my fitness between now and then though)

cheers
Wait for me...

Nope, open offer to anyone

Although an appreciation of type 2 fun may be of use :wink:

That's the spirit.

Even if you wanted to avoid everyone all weekend it would be hard work.

If you are stuck shout up and we'll sort something out, either tagging along with us or I'm sure we can pair you up with someone else

Room for a small one with either Chew or Flatfishy?

Will need to tag along with someone, otherwise could be out there for a week!

(All dependent on my late entry being accepted :wink: )

I'm riding this on my own at the moment, would be interested in company. Down to do the "lite" version.

I'm in the same boat, begged, kajouled and pleaded but no one was interested. Also doing the lite and after last weekends ride through a recently muck spread field I don't think map reading is my strong point.

Excellent, I tried to get people to come and play as well, but couldn't convince anyone it was a good idea.
