Title: Amblers ride 14th May - Chasers are welcome too.
Post by: Ben on May 12, 2017, 08:43:20 AM
I will be at Physiques at the usual time. For a tour round the Vale. Maybe get a few short sharp hills in. Maybe ride the Bwlch and back. Not sure yet we'll see who's there. If any Chasers want to come with us we'll probably be a little slower than last weekend (it was rather quick from all accounts). I have a few routes in mind though. I'll keep it around 40ish miles from Brackla and back though.

8 riders today. Biggest group I've seen for a while. Myself, Nick H, Carrie H, Mal, No straps Mike, Matty, Lee and Jonathon (who just missed the Chasers).
We went over to Pontyclun then over to Miskin. Up through Vale resort and joined up with the Tuesday midweek ride until turn off to Treguff. Treguff hill wasn't too bad today. All got up the sloppy slope with our any issues. Then we tootled over to Penmark. Back to Llantwit via St Athan and coffee at Cafe Velo. Back home via Llanmaes and Llampha. Jonathon and myself turned off towards Wick where I came back to Llantwit via the main road. Good distance and some great speed today as well. Weather held out for the most part (I got soaked leaving home though).
