I would love to do this course but not available on 30th (doing Fondo) are you planning on doing it again soon?
Hi Michelle. Thanks for the enquiry. We have a busy half year ahead so I am unable to commit to another women’s course at this point. I will see how I am going as the year progresses. Keep an eye on DORC social media for all upcoming courses and events. Cheers, Jo
Please book my wife Gabrielle into this course. I am a DORC member and Gabrielle is joining up tonight.
