Plenty of choices for some nice ambling in the sunny weather. My usual little caveat's apply. If there's any new riders who may not be confident with any of these routes they will be changed to accommodate. We will wait for anyone as usual. If you can think of a different ride you'd like to try let me know and we can try that too.

I have to be home by 1-2pm on Sunday so it's either Llantwit or Porthkerry.

Any of the Llantwit/St Athan members I'll be in the normal place at 8.10.

After lengthy discussion and a very close vote we went to Dyffryn Gardens on a route Carrie took us on a couple of weeks ago. Lots of little bumps which Andy has just realised,excellent coffee and Ben settled for a slice of Gin and Lime cake, it could have been improved with a blob of cream. So me Ben and Ade headed back the way we came waveing to Ben as he headed home at Green lane, Ade and myself split at the A48. We did talk about Maerdy briefly but that was all🚴🏻‍♀️

Thanks Ron. It was a great ride today. Not to warm and not too hilly. A couple of new hills for me to include in future runs too.
