There's still the option to camp on the site, there's plenty of room for a few tents.
But if you're not up to camping, like you say, there's plenty of B&Bs around there, just don't leave it too long, because of Covid every man and his dog are booking all the places up in the UK.

kev are you riding this year or staying home with the ladies? :lol:

do we need a few routes worked out. suggest 2 groups as there is a big crowd, and its easier with less than 10 per group

There's a very good chance I'll be riding this year with CheekySandra on the back.
Yes, due to the large nbr of participants, 2 groups will be a good idea, I'll take one group, but it will be on a more scenic, small A and B type roads, around the Elan Valley, and South of Rhayader.
If you're happy to take another group out, that would cover the rides out.
I'm sure we'll have plenty of people willing to be back markers.
I'm in Cornwall at the moment, when I get back I'll give you a ring, and discuss some probable routes, not forgetting that further North of Betwsy co ed / Balla Lake is a waste of time, average speed cameras all over the place now.
Not as though any of us will be speeding of course :D

taking kevs advice about the average speed cameras and speed traps on the roads in the north, this is my thoughts on the progressive groups route trying to stay off the big main roads.

open to comments from locals as there are a few roads I haven't ridden

So one of the roads is called "Gravel Road"....
Should I be putting knobblies on?
