As discussed last week the proposed Sunday route is :-
Brackla - Coychurch - Pencoed - Brynna - Llantrisant - Church Village - Tonteg - Power Station Hill (descent) - Upper Boat - Loop around Caerphilly Castle up Nantgarw hill and Cardiff Rd with coffee stop on top of Caerphilly Mountain - Taffs Well - Radyr - Fairwater - St Brides Super-Ely - Gwern-Y-Steeple - Welsh St Donats - Aberthin - Cowbridge - Llandow - Post Office Hill - Ewenny - Brackla.
Should be around 55 miles and weather forecast is cloudy and hopefully dry.
All welcome see you Sunday 9am weather permitting!

Good one, thanks for this Lee, see you Sunday.

5 hardy souls turned up for a soaking this morning to brave the wet and windy miserable conditions. As we headed out towards Caerphilly Mountain along the planned route a coffee stop at the Mountain Snack Bar was well deserved after a cheeky little mountain climb! (thanks Andy for the refreshment, my turn next time!) Strong turns on the front again from James doing most of the donkey work with Richard L close behind. There was no let up with the showery intervals on the return leg until about 2 miles from home as we approached Ewenny but an enjoyable route all the same at just over 49 miles and slightly under the advertised 55 miles, shame about the weather :(
Out today were :-
James Criddle
Richard Lewis
Richard Bowmer
Lee Stoneham
Andy Samuels (guest appearance - good to see you back!)
A few of the chasers are unlikely to be out next Sunday but Richard B will post a route for the following Sunday (18th June)

Thanks Lee, enjoyed today's route.
Richard L, not Richard B, to post the route for 18 June.
