Looking forward to this one, despite the 9 hour drive. Looking at accommodation options at the moment - anyone able to make a recommendation? Got to be reasonably priced but I'm told camping is not an option.

Booked a room at LLwyn Hall - looks charming despite their lack of vowels, <5 mins drive to race start, and reasonably enough priced. llwynhall.co.uk |

My race has its own thread! Llwyn Hall is a fantastic place to stay, been to a few weddings there and often run past it. Close proximity to the start line too... J tell my your budget and I will make some suggestions. Will be going out to recce the course on my new mountain bike next week. Start and finish will still be same place, still almost all tarmac and 37 miles but may make a few subtle adsjustments to make the route more pleasant on the eye (if not the legs). Will upload it as a Garmin route as soon as it is done. May stay the same though... |

Yes Hipps: Llanelli Central East Llandafen Road, Llanelli SA14 9BD Is the one next to the track from last year so that will bring back good memories and is about 5 minutes drive from start. |

Plodding Hippo, jono, the Premier Inn was dearer than Llwyn Hall! We must've got the last room. Anyone decided where the pre-race drinkies will be?
