Red Kite Festival 19th September 2010

Hey Guys

Just noticed that this event has been moved to September but is still brilliant, its 3 days of guided rides at LLanwyrtd Wells at £15 per day, this usually includes a barbeque on the Saturday night.

Some of the "OLD SKOOL" Cyclone guys have done this and its superb, its usually about 15-20 miles 1st day ,then 30-35 on Saturday with a shorter ride on the Sunday. The Saturday ride usually goes through the Doethe Valley which was voted top ten ride in Britain a couple of years ago on MBR, I think one of the Meridas did it a while back too which Speedy Daz may be able to confirm.

So put it in your diary

i am think of doing it i just have to check to see whot i am doing
and we have Dast2 dawn around then as well

"OLD SKOOL" Cyclone guys

How very very dare you !!!!!!

Caught my first Victim , ;0)

Yep one of the merdia's last year done the Dothie valley. A really great trail just shame it was 40km in and I was getting tired!

Yeah its worth it just to ride the Dothie valley. Fantastic scenery, just don't let your front wheel drift off the edge

The ice cream van parked on the dam is always worth stopping for, don't you think Si?

Definitely , gotta be a 99 with a flake though

Hi Si,

I'm planning on riding the Redkite bash if it doesn't clash with something else...............as the dates seem unclear.

When I looked the dates for the event are 6-8th August, where did you see September Si?

Its not on the Green Events site. Heres the link to the entry form I found

Hey TWB

Thats weird the only link I can find now is for the dates you said, maybe they moved it as it clashed with the Ruthin Merida, as the guys who guide this also are involved in the Merida rides too and have previously clashed.

I think I've realised my error, I think I've had a brainfart and you're right, lol

We all have our moments Si, it would have been a real shame to miss it due to an oversight

I'm planning on camping on the rugby field so hopefully you and a few others are up for that and it could turn out to be a cool old skool weekend

It would be good to have a catch up Si, see you soon, Mark
