The Welsh Teams Fundraising efforts at the Welsh 2 Day went well - many thanks to all the riders who supported us with our time card sales and raffle. Generous donations are continuing to come in and thanks to G E Woodlands, Rumours Nightclub, John Begley , Welsh Motorcycle Federation, Dyfed Dirt Bike Club, B & D Kitchens for your support.

For those people that keep an eye on the Welsh Six Day Teams Website, it's temporally disappeared into that big black hole. A new site is under development over the next few weeks so keep an eye out for the new Web Address.
