A Tasty 50 miler
Feb 24^th, 2013 at 1:17pm

As most are aware WBRC own Wiggy & Cavindishy have managed to get enteries in the Carten 100mile cycle race from Cardiff back to Tenby!! Needless to say neither have done much training (true WBRC style)
I know a few others were interested but missed the gates!!
So wondered if anyone fancy a jolly from Llanelli back to the bridge on the National Bike route!?
It will give the boys a bit of a ride out and would be a bit of a bump start to the season
Its around 50 miles mostly flat until we hit St Clears !!
Ive counted at least 5 pubs we will ride past their front doors!!!
This wont be a race just a bit of a cruise!!!
What you think!? Roll Eyes

sounds good to me, a weekend I assume?
are we thinking pre-season here? what with coastal challenge in the way, I'm looking at the calendar and going all the way back for a free weekend and it's easter bank hol weekend (crazy roads time with tourists), or weekend of 23-24 Mar?

reasoning:
Carten is 11th May
Sat 27Apr - Mon 6May - Pembrokeshire Coastal Challenge
Sat 20Apr T&C wedding
Sat13 Castle2Castle, Sun14 Caernarfon league
Sat 6Apr - Return of Cleddau
Fri29Mar - Mon1Apr Easter bank hol weekend *Sat 30th = day out in Cardiff... dubbed 'Judgement Day' by the WRU, Scarlets v Dragons 2pm, Ospreys v Blues 5pm - back to back games £25 a ticket in the millenium stadium, not a bad price for two games, will be after 6N so the stars will be back in the regions.
Sat23Mar - girls on hen do so daddy daycare for the carten boys
Sat16Mar - deny England the GS. Could start out in the morning from Llanelli, catch some of the Ita V Ire game 'on the way' when getting 'refreshments' Wal V Eng doesn't kick off till 5pm, could be at the bridge by then if 5hr ride is to be believed... Huh

Sat9Mar - Rugby, Sunday 10th = mothers day.
Sat2Mar - this weekend. I'm not around but them's your options Shocked

As for wedding took me about a week to organise mine.(well the bits i had to do) oh and delegated them back to Marja, so in all didn't have to do a thing, just turned up. That's Planning!
