Are you ready to get ‘wacky’?
Have you entered the PPA Wacky Wheels Weekend Adventure on 16-18 March 2012 yet? This overnight cycle tour is a chilled-out, very social weekend (no racing!) with the emphasis on FUN and a great weekend away. This year’s tour is a bit different to recent years in that your campsite is booked for both Friday and Saturday; you make your own way to and from Onrus where we leave our vehicles, and we do some fun out-and-back rides from there, with some great meals thrown in.
