Spar Wars
A big thank you to this years sponsors and obviously those who made the pilgrimage to the Towers ... lovely evening now and the promise of a further sunny couple of days
May the bridges you burn light your way

Re: Spar Wars
Riding on paths? Shocking . The path less trodden/ridden I guess, rather than a, you know, path .
Spar Wars. Fantastic . Wonder what weapons they'd use? A Tunnock's thrown with skill can be a pretty lethal projectile admittedly. Same with a Ginster's.
I'm liking the 'religious' angle. Return Of The Jedi/Bikepackers. For some, it is
Cracking shirt this year indeed .

May the 4th be with you, only a bit later
Re: Spar Wars
Brilliant! I wore my WRT 2020 Apocalypse t-shirt for the first time last night. Gutted I couldn't make it this year...
There are theories at the bottom of my jargon.

Re: Spar Wars
Heh, I like the theme of this WRT. Hopefully everyone's having a blast! Gutted I'm missing it.

Re: Spar Wars
Thanks again for organising such a fantastic annual event Dee and Stuart.
And the good news is that it's now only 11 months to wait until the WRT 2022.
Pictures to post on the How it went thread later on

Re: Spar Wars
Apologies from me again. I could have made it this year too, but for my poor organisational skills
Great t-shirt! Maybe I'll get one of next years.

Re: Spar Wars
My first WRT and a huge thanks to Stuart & Dee. I should say thanks to JC for letting me follow the route and to our group of riders. Lee R, Mike P, Sam W and Alex (who we guided out of Hafren). A good craic with others through the weekend too.
Thanks all for making the bikepacking community a good 'un.

Re: Spar Wars
Thanks everyone for a lovely long sunny weekend. Great vegan chocolate muffins made by Dee. Thanks Stu for the use of your light bracket and a great ride.
Re: Spar Wars
Nice to catch up with everyone.
Special thanks as usual to Dee and Stu.
Cheers!

Wait for me...
Re: Spar Wars
I can second that the vegan chocolate muffins were excellent. Possibly the best vegan cake I've eaten, but I won't be telling Mrs Daz that.
Thanks all for a great weekend. Don't think I've ever done a single ride with such a variety of terrain and countryside. Coming from the Pennines I thought I was used to featureless moorland, but those hills north west of Rhayader are bleak. I'll definitely be back.

Re: Spar Wars
There was no such variety of terrain in my ride - just up, or down. Nowt in between...

Re: Spar Wars
Brilliant T-shirt, and sounds like a stonking good weekend - shame I missed it.
