It is indeed the 25th John! :-)
Looking to do a midday start from outside Wild Thyme in Braunton. Hopefully arranging use of a local camping field for easy parking and place to stay the night before.
Should have the website up next week or two with more details.

Cheers

I've not got a date for my Hebden thing yet. But I'll just stick it down when I have a proper think. It'll probably be early enough on, before TD.

Would it help to add a calendar page on the self-supported site for group starts? Something like the BP ultra racing calendar

http://www.bikepacking.net/forum/ultra- ... y-thread)/

I'd like for the website to be a useful resource, so suggestions welcome. Though I would like to keep the lower profile no frills style.

Hope valley Paul, feel free to drop me a mail and I'll create something. I'm not a frequent checker on the websites so appreciate anyone sending information on routes and times etc.

Cheers,

Steve

Nobody has mentioned Markus Stitz Capital Trail from Edinburgh. I believe there was a massed start around June 2015 and it is looks a fab route so hopefully it will happen as massed start in 2016 too?

Steve, if you want to take on the google calendar I started (linked earlier in this thread) then it's fine by me though it's a work in progress :roll:

It was launched as part of the Edinburgh Festival of Cycling. Assuming the same again, that would put it between 9th and 19th June 2016. Will Markus be back in time......?

I think that is a good idea Steve.
Forums are great, but one oage with a list of events and routes would be a good resource for people getting into self supported riding.
