We will have to sort the camp site fairly soon and make sure we can all be on the same pitch..

Yeah defo
if you can start to have a look mate then excellent, if not ill get onto it monday
looking forward to this, 4 whole days of biking...superb

Yeah I'll get on it mate

Having a look for camping and its possible to camp at Afan its self for £3 a night but its just a basic thing no frills, have to book in advance through the visitors centre has showers fire pits and BBQ's are allowed

I will be coming, if i can put my bike in the van for getting there i don't mind driving and taking people or bags ect as i only have a fiesta and no bike racks. Brother has not back to me let but will be going wales end of the month with him so will defently know if if he likes it

Yeah no problem taking bikes in my van mate, got plenty of room..

I'll look into the camping today and post up a plan of attack for the trails and we can go from there.

confirmed: me, festa, dazzer, mattvanders & jim

possibles: beardee & andydd

anyone else interested in this then just post up.

Im would be very interested in going, I would rather a B&B if only for a warm shower / bath after a long ride.

I have access to vans also so happy to work something out with others.

Most people are up for camping so we will go for this but I'm sure you will be able to get a b&b nearby.

My older brother is a may be, hes cameing wales with me the end of the month and if he like it will be back for more. He would be coming from Barnsley so no need to include him in transport arrangements

Right been looking into this and have a plan below which we all need to confirm we are happy with before booking camping etc.

Friday 13th - travel to Afan Forest Park in the morning (approx 3 and a half hours) and get a days riding there. They have their own campsite
so plan is to stay the night.
Sat 14th - earlyish start to travel up to Coed-y-Brenin (approx 2 and a half hours) and get a full days riding, as this seems to be the best
centre in Wales with the biggest choice of trails. Theres also a number of campsites around the area so spend the night here.
Sun 15th - Short drive to Coed Llandegla (less than an hour) for more riding before driving home from there (approx 4 hours)

This makes the most sense to me as will be travelling from South to North Wales taking in what seem to be the best centres in Wales but if anyone has any other suggestions then post up and see what everyone else thinks.

Need to get on this quick to book the campsites, as the areas we are going are popular, as is July.

You'll be lucky getting to Afan in 3 1/2 hours.. more like 4 1/2?

I'm in, book my brother and if he pulls out i will pay for him/anyone else on the forum at short notice can go

Sounds good to me, might be worth asking some one whos been to all the above centres to check if there all worth riding as would be a shame to leave say Coed-y-Brenin on our last day only to wish we had stayed there for the last ride..

Beardee or Damo maybe the ones to ask or shouldgetoutmore was there a few weeks back ?

im happy to go with the flow though, i agree camping is the way forward will save a lot of dosh plus be a good laugh and get to meet other like minded (nuters) people
