A Pre Spring celebration of stuff.....STW style.......?

I'm possibly going to be there for a week day ride week commencing the 22nd. Waiting to hear back from a couple of people. Thursday 25th is the front runner at the moment.

Is anyone up for a very wet Mid Wales Tywi track type ride thingy? I'm happy to lead at a gentlemanly pace, fun on the trails and tea in the bothy are the watchwords. Bring teabags, milk, buns and a cooker thing.

ambrose - i may be interested, whereabouts in mid wales - will be over that sort of direction a couple times in the summer.

how far are the quantocks from hertfordshire?
They're a bit south of Bristol
So however far from Hertfordshire, to Bristol, then a bit further... At a guess, 2 1/2 hours.

Jedi, about 4 1/2 hours. You need to make a weekend of it. Xc Saturday and uplift downhill day Sunday.
Posted 1 year ago # -
hmmm
Posted 1 year ago # -
Uplifts at triscombe now
Posted 1 year ago # -
Sort of between Llyn Brianne and Claerwen Reservoir. I'd be staying at one of the local bothies or perhaps the pub in Pontrhydfendigaid.
or here

Hi Sharki. Is that organised uplifts or DIY ?
Posted 1 year ago # -
Granny-ring uplifts.
Posted 1 year ago # -
jedi - it take me about 1.5hrs from swindon and for me to get to swinley it's about an hour (40mins to j10 of the M4). if one of the lads could post up a postcode/sat nav thing that would help.
sharki/knottie and co - does the 20/21 weekend suit you?
Posted 1 year ago # -
I can't do that weekend. Just checked my calender and it's my wedding anniversary.
First weekend in April?
Posted 1 year ago # -
First weekend in April is Easter .You could come to my Exmoor Easter Parade instead .
Posted 1 year ago # -
OK, so in order we have:
Quantocks March 20/21st
Exmoor 1st week in April (avoiding all the yellow rubber ducks floating around the streams that time of year)
Purbecks April
Swinley? I am up for helping out, CG, name the weekend.
Did I miss anything there?
Would be good to get a god turn out to all of these.Posted 1 year ago # -
cant do 20th as i got a group booking that day.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Would that mean you would be available on the 21st, and could teach a few of us the black magic art of raising wheels higher than half an inch off the deck?
Posted 1 year ago # -
Jedi, just checked mileage. 170 miles 3hrs 40 mins. if that helps. Sponging Mc, I don't have a granny ring :::)
Posted 1 year ago # -
I'd love to, but i'm running demo weekend at Cannock!
Posted 1 year ago # -
20th 21st is no good for me, don't mind helping out with the orgasming again but can't arsist with guidage.
Dropoff, a bit of both, non offical uplifts, but from local Downhillers....i'll contact them and see what the crack is..
