There are three of us heading over to Llandegla for a ride this Wednesday coming (15th) so thought we would see if anyone else fancied joining us for a ride of the new B-Line section. For those of you who haven't ridden it yet it completely transforms the entire ride. The pace is as quick or as slow as anyone feels like.

Followed by a top cuppa in the top cafe after.

Post up if you fancy it. Cool

Whereabouts are you guys travelling from? I'd love the chance to check out Llandegla but I can't get there myself. If I can hitch a lift then I'm in Wink

We are heading over from the Shropshire/Welsh border but have filled the van so anyone else attending will need to make their own way there. Ras hopefully someone else round your way might fancy it so you can grab a lift.
I would expect the start time to be around 10.00am but we can arrange that around people if needs be.

Rhys it's going to rain when we hit the small climb in the trees. How do I know this? It always fricking rains when we hit the small climb in the trees! Laughing

Yeah next time! i'm still trying to get out on my first forumy originated ride, but work and other hobbies (i.e. racing) seems to be always in the way :/

Just a word of warning guys, I've heard of two seperate cases recently where people have been followed home from Llandegla (unknowingly) and had their houses raided and bikes nicked (with alot of other expensive stuff). Admittedly They did live in Wrexham (the closest big place to degla) but just be careful anyhow!
