Title: 12h TT in Wales in July
Post by: vorsprung on 20 April, 2010, 02:02:27 pm

04/07/2010 - Welsh CA (Welsh Championship)

    * Event Start: 06:00
    * Distance: 12hr
    * Event Type: Solo
    * Course: R12/95

I assume as this is "open" anyone can enter provided they belong to a CTT affiliated club?
I am looking for a training event for the Mille Cymru
Here is the routesheet for "R12/95"

Seems to go to Raglan quite a bit so there will be some hills at least....

Alternatively, I could enter the Peacocks and Kites 300 (which is the same day).  Although this starts at 5 bloody am

If I were to ride a 12, this might be the one.

But I think I'd prefer the P&K (even though I'd take 20hrs to do about the same distance! )

Alternatively:
Fancy route-checking my 400 on the 10th? It goes over Offas Dyke! (must start a thread about this ... ) Shorter drive to the start.

It's usually in September, don't know why it's so early this year... It goes from Raglan to Hereford and back and then onto a circuit around Raglan and Usk (not sure how long) and finally a shorter finishing circuit for the last hour or so. Nice quiet roads, and the event has long had a reputation for being enjoyable and friendly.
