I was making the observation, with such few numbers taking part, how is it financially viable. Unless the organisation is treating it as a loss leader and recouping via sales or advertising
I saw this and thought of the Pyrenees crew. Ive already got a few names against the list.....

it's run as a local charity ride, it isn't affiliated to one of the big names. The Facebook page is sparse, the advertising is non existent. I think he does it for the love of cycling in Wales and nothing more. If he raises a few quid for the local hospital then happy days.

The next time I do it I will as well
I think I'll have to get one of those for next year. What device is it you guys have?
Bill, alot us now have the Wahoo Elemnt (large screen) or the Elemnt Bolt(small screen). They work identically
I recently got the Elemnt Bolt Bill and the DD was the first ride I used it to follow a route. I previously had a Garmin 800 and I have to say I was very impressed with the Elemnt Bolt. There were a couple of bits of ropey signage on the DD this year so I was glad to have the route to follow on the Elemnt (signage was much better two years ago)
Wahoo Element bolt i think most of us had that on the dd but i didnt put route on as last year the signage was good its a good unit im very happy with it

I have the bolt. I’d like the bigger screen version too because I think it’s a bit better for maps. But apparently a new big screen version is coming soon.

Hey chaps, when do you leave for the Pyrenees? Very jealous - and I'll be looking out for the tales and Strava exploits
We leave Friday Norry. Very exciting!!
Thanks for the info chaps. I looked them up and not ridiculously expensive so I should probably get one. Might wait until next year before getting one if I'm not going back out in the rw before then. I noticed @kipster had a ride profile on his but don't know if that was also a Wahoo Elemnt or not. That looked really useful to me for knowing when the really tough gradients are coming up.
