Ok this camping lark. I heard some are bringing large tents. How large is large? Would there be room for one small person to fit in. It would save me dragging a tent up there.

I've put up proposed routes for both the leisurely and progressive rides.

Al and Mjonesy will need to agree the route for their group

I'll catch up with flatty and discuss with him for ours.

Cheers for your help benny :thumbup:

Ok just had a chat with Flatty and agreed the leisurely route will be split into two sections.

We'll head out of Rhayader and do the northern section loop back to Rhayader. This will give anyone who wants or needs to, to the chance to end their ride and kick back with a few beers etc.

Those that want to can then head out of Rhayader again and do the southern section loop to brecon and back to Rhayder.

The progressive route will be the same up until Bala were we will all meet for lunch and a chinwag. After that, the two groups will set off seperately and meet back at camp.

This will ensure that those who want to ride wales at a leisurely pace can choose how much of it they want. There will be absoultely no pressure in the leisurely group so, if this is stopping you from coming, don't let it :thumbup:

Great idea Phil :thumbup:

That's the minimum for a good ride out, the progressive group need to be up for riding, not talking :D
