A bunch of dedicated ramblers will soon be pulling on their hiking trousers ready to tackle the rigours of the Sheep's Head Way in the Irish Republic.
The North Wales Charity Ramblers are being supported by vehicle rental and contract hire specialist TLS, which is providing a minibus to take the 11-strong team to Co Cork, It will take the ramblers four days to complete the 60-mile trek, at the end of which they hope to have raised £5,000 for charity.
But they will not be hanging their boots up yet. Over the next few months the team is planning a 500-tn Ile cycle tour of Wales as well as walking the Three Peaks of Yorkshire and the Clwydian range. "All the money raised will go to Riding for the Disabled, a Flintshire charity that encourages people with disabilities to take part in horse riding," says team leader Chris Jones. "TLS support means even more money will go to the charity and we are very grateful for the donation of the minibus."
When at his physical peak the Hawk liked to go a-wandering in the great outdoors. Perhaps that accounts for his colleagues referring to him as "the rambler" (ignorance is bliss—Ed).
