Only one correct answer. Giro Rumble VR. Been wearing these since about 2016 (replaced like for like). Ultra comfy, easy to walk in. Perfect

Weather is looking great for the weekend. Hope everyone is getting packed up. Possibly bring a bucket and spade

Just amended the year in the title, apologies for the confusion.

What is the Lonely Hearts Club? Well, would you like to enter the Welsh Ride Thing but don't feel entirely confident in your abilities? Yes? Then perhaps join the Lonely Hearts Club. You'll have no navigation worries or concerns about finding re-supply or overnight spots (that's all on me). If you'r...

Excellent thanks. All sorted thanks to your heads up

Hi Dave,

Did you sell the Inreach mini 2 by any chance?

Regards

Karl

As above, wanted Garmin inReach Mini 2. Needs to be the 2 (due to battery life) and in good working order. Anyone have one lying around they don't want?

Thanks

Karl

As Reg mentioned you lucky lonely folk have the choice of 2 Lonely Hearts Clubs this year. I promise you whichever group you choose you'll probably dislike us for a bit of it, you'll be our best mates for some bits, you'll be ambivulous towards us for the other bits. At the end of the weekend you'll...

Thanks for everyone's replies. It's a minefield out there. Still not chosen. Did find on Sportpursuit whilst looking at the Marmot Bantamweight a Berghaus Paclite Dynak GTX Jacket which seems good value, any knowledge/opinions? https://www.sportpursuit.com/catalog/product/view/id/2789131 Montane jac...

Hi John, thanks for the reminder.

Rasta, drop us a message and I can talk you through the Nordkapp trip.

Is there only one outdry jacket now? Struggling with the £225 price tag.

Reg was using a montane jacket to good effect which seemed to fit the bill?

Any particular montane jacket? Noticed a few reduced on sportshoe website.

Looking for recommendations for a packable waterproof jacket. Needs a hood. Zips that don't mind mud. Waterproofing that doesn't wear out too quickly. Moon on a stick?

This is still available. Open to any sensible offers.

Cheers Rich, for another great weekend. Cheers Al and Karl for the fun on Saturday, along with the ice cream and anchovies :wink: Hope you had a good feed and beer at Torver and it wasn't spoiled by water poisoning related wild shites :lol: We had no issues with the warm bilge pump water 🤣 Only 2 h...

Hi, For sale is my wife's Minim 350 Down Sleeping Bag. Length is the short version, PHD say for heights 171cm (5 ' 7 " ) and below. Standard width. It has a short zip on right hand side. In very good condition. Comes with netting and stuff bags. £150 including UK delivery. https://i.imgur.com/Q...

Just wanted to chime in and say you definitely didn't fail at the WRT. On the start of the first climb out of Stu's you were done and going home. You, after a little encouragement, got over that climb and continued for the rest of the day. We did about 40km and 1300m of climbing. That doesn't feel l...

Think that makes you the final, final person. At least when I get lost I won't be on my own

Steve, I think you need to come to the dark side and get in touch with Rich and Shona @ Keep Pedalling

Mac just for you. Here are some spoilers.

We might end up here...



Hopefully we manage to avoid this section...



And fingers crossed we end up here...

So we're probably at capacity for the Lonely Hearts Club. We are not Lonely together:

Duncan
Niall
Paul
Patrick
Matt
Malc
David
Alex
Chris
Julian
Georgia
Me
Cat

Only a few days until the fun commences.

I've 3d printed a few valais type collars for folk. Give us a shout Mart if you want me to run one off for you to try.

Probably not the wisest of words from Reg

Sounds like Theresa Tickle and Philip McCrevis are short of an additional member to really make it work. Fingers crossed it works out.
