Welsh Road Race
No, not my mate
There's a new race in Wales - 4th and 5th August.

It's outside Brecon on some MOD Land.
I hope it takes off.

Re: Welsh Road Race
Very true but there are plenty of houses, walls and other road furniture. Reading the MCN description there is a complete lack of anything of that sort..... They make it sound like some kind of long distance closed circuit ?
It was merely my observation and not meant as any kind of negativity as any other bike racing that I can travel to see is alright in my book and I can see where from the description it would be hard to pidgeon hole with what to call it .

Re: Welsh Road Race
So who's going? I'm a definite and thinking I might combine it with a few days ragging around South Wales and Ireland. (camping)
I've found the track on Google Maps, so spring Tank Slap rideout/track test is also a must.

Re: Welsh Road Race
I am in... I thought it was MOD land, so not for us types.... I am sure that if it was an open road it would have been as well known as the Crossgate to Newtown road?

Re: Welsh Road Race
They’re public roads on MOD land Frankie. There’s miles of unknown fantastic roads in South Wales, I rarely see other bikes on them.

Re: Welsh Road Race
A lap of the track. Looks fast.
Anyone fancy booking a bell tent for the event?
