Dorset Rough Riders cc is organising the world first orienBEERing event. No tears, just beers, check pints instead of check points.

In teams of however many you fancy, armed with a map, you will cycle off into Wareham Forest area to find the “checkpints”, collecting points and consuming the hidden beers as you go. The secret stashes of beer will vary in quantity of points and quality of pints – “Value” beer at the really easy to get to spots, and good ale on the secret singletrack and hill tops!

We have some cool sponsors, some smart prizes, a unique trophy and best of all, it looks likely that we may have scrounged some free beers. What more could you want?

So, if you fancy a chilled afternoon this bank holiday, seeking out checkpints and consuming hidden stashes of beer, simply turn up at Silca Trail Carpark, Near Silent Woman Pub, Wareham Forest. Dorset, at 2pm on Sunday of the Bank Holiday weekend.

All you need to bring is your bike and three quid in case we need to top up the kitty. Everyone ‘s welcome so feel free to bring your chums. Single speed friendly. Any questions, call me on 01202 525 674, or e-mail. Camping available nearby via Steve on 01202 890 235.

NB. All riders should wear a helmet. The ride organiser/club will not be responsible for any injury or loss you may suffer. You must sign an indemnity to enter. Over 18’s only. “orienBEERing” is a trademark of the Hung’li KKdonkee Institute of Soul Nourishment. copyright 2001.
