    I'm interested in this too, although I am wondering if it'll be TransWales again and not, for example, a TransScotland? Is the overall event not part of the TransUK series and maybe goes to differing areas throughout?

    Nowt wrong with Wales obviously (although Scotland is better :wink: ), but just wondered if it would be somewhere else for 2011.

    I've photographed the event for the last 4 years.

    I put together a little slideshow of pics from this year's event: http://www.flickr.com/photos/30973426@N06/sets/72157625036825839/show/

    There are also features in the current editions of Bicycle Buyer and MBUK and in the forthcoming edition of XXC magazine.
  • I did the 2010 trnswales and it was a fantastic tour. It's basically a weeks MTB holiday with short race sections within the day's riiding. Each day is around 5 hrs riding. £500 gets you 350 miles of signed Welsh trail with food stops along the way. Post race bike wash and then a quality meal far beyond what I could have expected. Then it's camp down for the night before a full cooked breakfast and off again for more thrills, spills, mud, rock and rain. I can't wait til August 2011.

    Nice photos :D
    I'm not a racer, but I like to churn out 2-3hr rides,
    I love Cannock and Llandegla cycle parks.

    I have wanted to do it for last 2 years and as great as the event is and great value, i cant afford the £500. Maybe in next couple of years :cry:
