Craig, how well do you know the landlord at the Britain? The Wales v Ireland 1/4 final is on at 6am Saturday morning, I've just got to see this game.

I have to pull out of the Welsh as I'm resting my damaged shoulder before a long ride I have coming up. A numb arm isn't great for long distances!
I've taken myself off the event register, teacher.
Have a great one y'all!

He's a personal friend, I'll find out if they're opening for butties anyway, worst case you can call up and watch it with me - I'm only 4 miles away and will be up of course!

It's a bit Loose, I have 2 guys calling in to take rides locally, I'll ask what time they were planning to go out - was kinda assuming mid morningbeddowsm wrote:Is there a thread anywhere detailing the trail ride on Saturday? Numbers, timings etc etc. Cant seem to find one.

No prob with any of that arrangement, plenty of spaceSteveB wrote:Hi,
Put my name down already, but thought I'd mention something in passing.
I have an old DR650 and GS12.
I want to bring the DR650 to Welsh Wales as I don't think its ever left the county of Yorkshire.
Thing is - and I hope this isn't a problem - I'm part way through converting a LWB sprinter to a glorified tent with the capacity to carry a bike in the back.
I want to bring the DR down in the back of the van And then sleep in the van.
Is this OK ? Will I be able to park it up somewhere ?
On the plus side - it can always be used to transport any damaged bikes. AND I think it will have the capacity to store essentials for the weekend (beer, wine, Pimms and lemonade)
If the vans a no no - then I'll leave the DR at home as I don't trust it for long motorway miles and bring the beemer.
Cheers
Steve

Re: ABR Wales Rally - Ted SImon and trail rides - a schedule of sorts
Last Call, only a couple of Ted Tickets left for the talk at Touratech - almost certain there'll be none available on the day - so don't moan if you don't book - I will as promised be bringing him to the Rally around 3.30 pm. Talk aiming for a 5.30 start finish by 8pm
I suggest the trail rides (there should be 2 guides) should kick off at 11.00am and another at 1.00pm, I may be able persuade the guides to take one out Sunday morning too. Not sure what Time Alun is taking the Rhondda Safari out though...
IF you're sat navving, I can give you waypoints to plot that will give you a fab road ride out anyway

Find out if you dont mind please. Nothing worse than not knowing plans, or having un prepared riders waitingdragonwheels wrote:It's a bit Loose, I have 2 guys calling in to take rides locally, I'll ask what time they were planning to go out - was kinda assuming mid morningbeddowsm wrote:Is there a thread anywhere detailing the trail ride on Saturday?

eg
Timings,
fuel stops en route (Im sure a few will be dry after travelling down)
any places to buy food / drinks en route
type of terrain / bikes able to ride (Im sure some riders will have road biased tyres)
distance to cover
etc etc
