You gotta get your blow up dolphin, ice cream and dead seagull from somewhere

[Matt]

SHOTGUN!

That's for the Bothy. It's now mine and applications and booking can be applied for directly through me in triplicate.

There will be security on the door and if your names not down your not coming in.

(and if your names Dan, your definitely not coming in)

[Taylor]

Dan doesn't know about WRT and I certainly ain't telling him.

[barney]

damm...

I'm stuck in work and have to got to wait a whole 3 hours before I start getting on everyones nerves at home for the next couple of weeks.

at least this year we're down to "just" 3 maps, last year I didn't have enough floor space to lie them all out (yes I know I'm old fashioned like that).

Seaside eh, do Giro have a "kiss me quick" helmet ?

Im the same! and after just picking up the required maps on my lunch it makes the waiting even worse!

Think you'll find OS Landranger 1:50 000, Aberystwyth and Machynlleth No135 covers the two nighter. Just ordered mine from dash4it.

Just be aware that the 1:50 doesn't always show all the possible tracks, etc ... there's one in particular that springs to mind, I imagine it still haunts some people who rode on a 1:50 a few years ago

[Taylor]

Ah, that bridleway. :D

I'm still having nightmares about the "bridleway" from the top of Dyfnant Forest last year.......

Oh bugger, never mind, it's ordered now. Haven't used 1:25000 for so long I can't remember.

[quote="s8tannorm"]That's right, on-line entries for this years WRT and BB200 are now live :D

Well I've got the " Bearbones" of a route sorted :D

Thanks Stuart.

[Matt]

I have all these plotted now in L&L

Is it cricket to share a Google link with KML in it?

[Ray Young]

Ordered my map from dash4it at 2pm yesterday and it drops through the letterbox at 10am today, outstanding service.

Don't think it's a problem.

Yep they're very good.

No guarantees its right.

[restlessshawn]

I was half tempted to get the steam train from Aberystwyth to Devils till I found this

Sorry, we are unable to carry bicycles.

Stu - have you ridden all of the GR's as a through ride (not a there and back)?

One particular GR we rode back in 2010 which wasnt very pleasant, but may have changed now.

I also seem to have a off map section

I've been to them all but won't have ridden them all as a route/loop in one go.

You know what it's like round here ... stuff doesn't change much and when it does it rarely gets better

I meant if a rode from A to B via one of the GR's i could do that in one section and and not have to double back?

Think i may have to reserve a place at the Bothies, although Susan can sleep outside. Shes got a tent to test out
