Here’s our recent feature on the scene, exploring a small selection of what’s going on and meeting the faces behind it.

hi Jamie is the error the photo of Danny Hart riding at Llangollen not tagged correctly or the fact that North Wales doesn’t border with the Midlands!?!? :o)
Wayne from Onegiantleap Llangollen
Mehhhh i count Shropshire as the Midlands! Besides I did say “over the Border in the Midlands” so technically as it is over the border (regardless of how far away!) I’m correct!
It was the Danny Hart cock up I was referring to!
never got the whole Midlands map idea as Shropshire is to the west of West Midlands !!!!how does that work lol
oooh what was the special prize?…..free uplift voucher at Onegiantleap Llangollen!?!? :o)
