The Welsh Ride Thing: Bear Bones 200 entries are now open.

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.

If you look back through the posts you'll find a more detailed description or if you're sold on the idea already, email stuart@forestfreeride.co.uk and ask for an entry form.

Bear Bones 200 entries are now open.

Anyone who didn't get their full bikepacking fix on the WRT may be interested to know that on-line entries are now open for the Bear Bones 200. The BB 200 takes place on October 15th/16th in sunny mid-Wales and should hopefully prove to be a proper mental and physical test.

I won't go into the details here but if I've sparked your interest nip over to the Bear Bones site where all is revealed.
