The Wales trip for this year is looking to be the biggest and best we’ve ever had with the inclusion of the Cross Country, Downhill and Road cycling disciplines.
The trip will take place on the 6th and 7th of November. Everyone will need to be at the Arts Tower at 6:30 am on the saturday morning.
We will drive to Bringewood, in Shropshire, where the DH riders will have a private uplift and the XC riders will ride on the various loops also in Bringewood. The route for the Road ride is still to be confirmed but will involve a 35 mile ride from Bringewood to our accommodation.
On the evening of the 6th we will drive to our accommodation – a village hall in Bettws Cedewain – where XC and DH riders will meet up with the Road riders.
The village hall has toilets, showers and cooking facilities. There is also a local pub, which could prepare us a meal if we let them know in advance.
On Sunday, the DHers will ride on a private uplift at Caersws. XC riders will also have a route in that area as will the Road riders.
We will leave Caersws at 5:00pm and expect to arrive in Sheffield at around 8:00pm.
Costing:
Downhill: £70 (including uplifts, transport and accommodation)
XC and Road: £30 (including transport and accommodation)
There is a possibility that these prices may increase, depending on the number of people attending. If the maximum of 20 downhillers ride on the uplift the chance of the price staying the same will be higher.
You need to have joined the club and paid your membership fee to attend this trip!
Let us know on here if you would like to attend. We would like to get the money from people as soon as possible so give it to a member of the committee at the end of your next ride. I'll also arrange some times for people to meet us in the source at the beginning of next week if people are not riding this weekend.
Thanks,
Ruari
