Left luggage at WRT

The person driving the blue Hilux (I think)
Parked next to the black Mitsubishi pick up, you left some kit behind. I dropped it off with Dee and Stu for safe keeping.

In! Booking form was in the blinking Shop not the Events page so that fooled this idiot for a bit. Thanks Allen :smile: . Monkees outfits anyone? :smile: Looking forward to a replay of the storms and 50-60mph winds of 2020. Not entered before? Be warned you might bump into this bunch of bikepacking...

Re: Boners on the Gower.

Great write up Stu and well done to all that endured the shire weather and the endless talking of bollox.
Any chance of sharing the GPX, looking for a trip out for August B/H and might even look at the possibilities of riding from home😃

Re: Thank you and Pictures.

Another excellent WRT weekend, got some miles in and great tan lines! We found some beautiful countryside, a couple of river crossings, and plenty of friendly people that fed and watered us. Many thanks to Dee and Stu for putting on such a memorable event, Taylor and Matt for their loyal assistance ...

Re: Suggestions for a budget bike packing bike

I have always ended up underwhelmed by bike to work savings. Think can find better value buying second hand, with carefull looking. Especially as market seems to be cooling at the moment.

Mid Wales from yesteryear

A slightly tongue in cheek but interesting view of Rural Wales from a time gone by.

Hopefully the link works, if not it called Tudur’s tv flashback I hope you enjoy and maybe can relate to some of it especially after the weekend a lot of us have enjoyed :)

Re: Tomb Raider..... What's your best guess

All packed and nearly ready to go, can't decide to have a bit of a kip now and drive up early hours or drive up now and kip in the car enroute. To be honest my bed is feeling the better option, see y'all at 9!
