Mechanics
But we don’t just have specialists for your body we also have specialists for your bike. The crew from Cycle-Tec will be with us helping riders out throughout the weekend with their knowledge and expertise. These guys have been with us for a few TransWales events and the majority of our MTB-Marathons!
EXPOSURE LIGTS night stage
To make sure that the night stage on Friday (17th) evening is a much fun as possible we will have the EXPOSURE LIGHTS crew with us as well. The guys will have their charging station for everybody who needs a top-up, hire lights as well as a few event specials on the stand. So make sure you check our their stand and get EXPOSURED up!
Torq Truck
And we also have the specialists for your engine. The Torq team will be on site giving advice on energy foods and will have their event stand open throughout the weekend.
Kids stuff
As you know we have lots of kids stuff going on. We will have bouncy castles, water slides, face painting, games on the lawn, kids races and so on, and so on. So simply bring your family along and have a great weekend away.
Other stuff going on
In case you missed our last rather packed newsletter which had a rather long list of things you can do, try, expect on it then make sure you give it another read here. Not bad for a small event we thought! And be assured we are not even telling you about everything we have planned.
