Well just over 7 weeks to go!! can’t believe how quick this is coming around.
The bikes are now starting to take tour mode, with additional temporary fuel tanks fitted to both bikes, we think we know where we are going with luggage holders and all in all bikes are hopefully ready to go, we need to get some more milage under our belts and run them in, thats run us the riders in not the bikes! not sure if we realise how long we will be in the saddle.
More so we seem to be more concerned with raising money for the selected charities, and with only 7 weeks to go this we need to get a decent amount collected although we are going to hold a cpl of charity nights when we get back, probably one in Barrie’s local The Stag Five Roads, as they have been kind enough to offer their help, and another will probably be held in my local Rugby Club Mynydd y Garreg so all will be welcome although dates and final formats for the nights are yet to be sorted, We have finally arranged a day in the Llanelli St Elli centre on the 19 April where we will have the bikes and a stall to promote the charities and raise money with Guess the milage, and are due on Swansea Sound a cpl of days prior just to raise awareness.
Think our mugs are in the Llanelli Star and Carmarthen Journal this week, Hopefully the Welsh Ruby Ball that we have been given being the actual match ball in the Wales Scotland 6 Nations game this year will now be more sought after, now being a Grand Slam Ball - Well Done Wales!!
So if you see us riding around please give us a wave or a toot on the horn and more so if you see a sponsor form please please sponsor these worthy causes or contact us on here if you could take a form too your local/or workplace or anywhere!!
