The WRT has moved. If you're looking for info, entries or anything else bikepacking related try Bear Bones Bikepacking, the Bear Bones blog or the Bear Bones forum - ta.

Yea, yea, yea, but what is it?

The WRT is a 3 day and perhaps more importantly 2 night ride through and around mid Wales. You'll be expected to be self sufficient, carrying everything you need and sleeping out in or under whatever you think best. It's not elitist, entry is open to anyone who wants to try it. All the money raised by the WRT goes to the Wales Air Ambulance charity ... an organisation I hope you'll never need.

WRT Weigh Off.



With all the fascination and discussion about kit weight I thought it might be an idea to have a WRT Weigh Off before the start for anyone who fancies it ... The rules and procedure are hopefully very straight forward.

• There will be a stand / balance outside the signing on tipi.
• Bring your loaded bike and any other packs you're riding with to the tipi and weigh them.
• Write your total kit/bike weight on the paper next to the scales.
• Don't cheat, you're only cheating yourself, blah, blah, blah ... and someone might check.
• Someone will win a prize for something.

See, told you it was simple.
