Well that’s it, the 2012 WRT is over, done and dusted, finished. The weather for the most part was lousy and the midges vicious but that didn’t stop the ‘fun’.

The combined efforts of everyone above have raised £2024.24 for the Wales Air Ambulance, so congratulations on a job well done.

I’ve mapped out numerous routes across the largely green and pleasant land and have gained […]
