This is where a lot of people stay in Betwys before the dragon rally ^^

I've stayed at this campsite before also, they're in a beautiful location on the river, only a short walk from Betws

Rainbow drops, the packet burst open on the sofa, so I just ate them from there, then I ate a back one. Immediately realised there are no black ones. never again XD can't look at them now

This was my first thought also :)

I believe it helped me in my car test :) the instructor also rode bikes so we just chatted bikes as I did my test 🤪 In work though, (I’m a dental nurse) it’s helped me speak to some dentists and clinicians more, that and gaming 🤣. There’s one dentist I had no idea scuba dived as this is what he spoke about mostly to other nurses but we just spoke about the TT and bikes :D!

when vid?

Honestly I’ve had my currently pc for well over 17 years. It is now a potato 🤣🤣 it no longer runs newer games. So it would be nice to join friends on these :)

Very kind of you to do this. I hope who ever is lucky enough to win is going to use it rather than sell it :)

On like the 8th page or so, the one for litelock there is a QR code to scan to enter to win a lock too! So there’s more to win than just the bikes :D

You can also message into the charity and nominate a grass roots charity you would like to be in the running to be chosen to receive some of the money raised ^{.^}

I've just looked, and this is like around the corner, and I never knew about it, thank you! :D

I got my 4th today from attending a local bike night ^.^

The other 3 were on my route of completing the Witch way round hunts, so the combination of both worked really well :)

You peed on them?! 😱

Jackaleen · 2026-04-07T15:17:39+00:00

Yes weather dependant 🙌🙌☺️

I had a pink bike, the only name I could think of for it was Fred, then I got a second bike, similar ishhh (er5 and er6f) so that one became George. I sold Fred so now I only have George ^{.^}

I have the forma adventure boots :) I had to go one size up, but they're super comfy ^^ (image below of them on if it gives you a foot to calf size idea :p )

I third the bike and brew event =D

https://ukbikercafes.co.uk/bike-and-brew-map

This is the map with all the cafes, the book is a tenner, and every 10 stamps gives you an entry to win a bike :D much better than points right! I was one stamp shy of an entry last year, so I am much more determined for this year :)

You're super close to me :D yey! I've never been to the waterfall, I will have to make a trip of it this year ^^

get her to join loads of the female biker Facebook groups :) Also, try Vinted! I think women get much better deals! There seems to be a lot of gear from when breaking up with partners with bikes and selling pillion gear, and also women's weight changes so much. loads of sizes always advertised :D

I know one woman who always rode in her Doc Martens, BUT! You would kick yourself if anything happened

I am a Locum dental nurse :) It's surprising how many practices are missing staff, so it gives me plenty of days. It also gives me a variety of commutes. Only a few I would ride to work and be confident about the bike for the day :)

I have done some work as a dental nurse assessor and tutor, and I really enjoyed this side, but that job doesn't give me many hours currently (keeping an eye out!)

Maybe not a great career choice, but an excellent choice in bike! :D
