Welsh Ride Thing 2024 was gravel bike cycling event category bikepacking in United Kingdom, Wales and was organized for the first time in 2009. The edition Welsh Ride Thing 2024 took place on Saturday 04 May 2024 with departure in Llanbrynmair, County Powys, Wales.

Organizer: The Welsh Ride Thing is the longest running bikepacking event in Europe. It’s quite unlike anything else because there is no fixed route to follow or mandatory checkpoints to visit. Instead you are given a number of grid references (which differ each year) from which to form your own route but you’re free to choose how many of these you use in planning your ride – all of them, a small handful or even none if you already have a route in mind.

The unique format makes the WRT accessible to everybody, no matter what their level of experience. It can be a solo ride, group ride or even a family outing. While people might devise a route which is 200km long, others may decide on something closer to 50km. Neither is right or wrong, it really isn’t a competition, it’s simply an opportunity to explore the hills and valleys of mid-Wales at your own pace. You can choose to complete your ride over 2 days/1 night or spend a 2nd night out and ride for 3 consecutive days.
