Hello Guys & Girls.

As we have a good number already attending this weekend.
The cut off for confirming you'd like to come along on this trip will be this Sunday 26th of February.
Anyone wishing to attend will you please let Gilly know in good time so she can start sorting out rooms/dorms etc.

If you ask after this coming Sunday you will be disappointed.

Quick update on the room booking...

I have booked a 6 bed ensuite for Darren, Jason, Swampy and simon £20 each (2 spaces left )

Double room for Laura and Mike £45.00

Twin room for Caroline and myself £20.00

Twin room for Mark and Gav £20.00

All prices include breakfast and bedding.

I have only booked for saturday night, so if you want to travel on friday and book friday night, please let me know so I can ammend the booking . Remember to add another £20 to cost though.

As for dinner, there is a kitchen to use. I will bring a big pot of something yummy to eat for people to share if they wish.

There are still more rooms available.

Hope this is all ok. Any problems let me know.

Planning a natural route on the Saturday if weather allows and people arrive in time (Think I can remember the Wafarer route )

Not sure if its possible but i would like to try the red run at llandegla - and if thats not too bad give the red+black run a try..... time permitting. The new B line looks fun from the videos.

Hi Marco,

Forgot to say, your booked into the Hostel aswell... You are in the 6 bed en-suite dorm with Jason, Phil, Darren, Simon and Swampy..
Any problems with that, please let me know. Cost is £20 if your just staying on saturday.

Cheers Marco,

Gilly

Another update on the accomodation Guys,

Does Caroline realise its Hostel and not a Hotel ?


Hopefuly the weather will be on our side open to suggestions but looking to do this route on the Saturday, so we can get a bit more than a trail centre bit more road than I would like (some of you will feel at home ) Bit of a push up the last hill (some maps have it as a footpath) I will buy beers for anyone that can ride it

Its up hill (it is wales) very rough in places gravel/ unsurfaced road, normal road then moorland/grassy/ interesting

Gilly, It's looking like I may not be able to make this now, is that going to be a problem?!

Hi swampy,

No worries, thanks for letting me know.

See you on the trails soon maybe.

Gilly
