Wales Tour/Wizz - September 2026
2026-09-01 - 2026-09-04
This is a tour/wizz that has become such a group favourite that we currently do it twice a year! Broadly speaking, for 2026 we will repeat the previous successful 4 day format … for July travelling to Wales on Monday and returning on a Thursday with September Tuesday to Friday both with two full days exploring some of the very best roads in the UK. We deliberately choose to avoid school holidays and weekends, so we don’t have to share with too many caravans or other traffic. Overall we’re talking of around 1200 miles planned and organised into manageable stages.
For 2026 we are organising for July 6th – 9th and a repeat for September 1st – 4th.
This event is open to all our group members, and we do encourage Tour/Wizz newbies. But please be aware that the overall mileage, duration, road conditions and weather combine to make this a challenging trip… ie: tiring but fun.. and very rewarding! Please read the notes below and check with your instructor if you are in doubt as to the suitability of the trip.
I will once again be aided and abetted by my two Welsh Politburo co-conspirators Roger Manning and Hugh Curran.
We have arranged accommodation and meals in the Hotel Commodore in Llandindrod Wells (https://hotelcommodore.co.uk/) at a special rate for dinner, bed and breakfast for three nights at £420 for those in a single room, and £257 for those sharing in a twin or double.
Please note that single rooms will likely be in short supply. We shall be limiting Tour/Wizz numbers to a manageable maximum of 30 riders, and if previous trips are anything to go by, demand will greatly outstrip supply, and spaces may have to be allocated as fairly as we can. Pillions are very welcome.
*IMPORTANT*
Whilst our Tours / Wizzes are open to all; we do have some safety criteria that you must meet. So before you come forward and to avoid disappointment please read our Preparing for a Tour and ensure you are comfortable with the advice and that you do or will meet the criteria.
If in any doubt then discuss with your Instructor, Roger or myself.
If you would like to reserve a place (to be confirmed once final details are known), or have questions, please email me on timbenians@gmail.com.
In the first instance, please let me know the dates you want to book for, and your sharing/single room preference.
Thanks, Tim
