Title: Amblers Sunday Club Run 19th October 2014
Post by: Paul Longthorn on October 18, 2014, 07:57:02 AM

Brackla - Coychurch - Pencoed   - at Pencoed Colledge roundabout turn right towards M4 . Felindre Rd - Ruthin - Llangan - Pentre Meyrick - Llysworney - Nash - right at the roundabout. Wick Rd - Wick - St Brides Major - Southern Down - Ogmore by Sea - Ewenny - New Rd - A48 - Three Steps Hill - Porthcawl - round the Sea Front - West Rd - Kenfig - Water Street - Eglwys Nunydd - A48 left at Heol Y Glo - New Rd Towards Parc Slip. Coffe stop at Parc Slip Nature Reserve.

Weather look ok but Sunshine and wind. So going around Ogmore by Sea and Porthcawl we should be able to enjoy the WSW 20mph wind to maximum effect. Overcast but no rain. See you all at 9am

10 Amblers out today

Paul Longthorn
Pete Philips ( 4th Tester Ride )
Tom
Mark Pope
Neil Bartlett
Tony
Terry
Andrew S
Carrie
Lee Stoneham

Ride all went to plan at a rapid pace and a few fell off the back while others when chasing Strava segments, although they did kindly wait for the stragglers. Very windy around the two coastal loops. A nice cuppa at Parc Slip just missed Ron's crew and we got the message you left with the girl at Parc Slip. Some plans been hatched to get out on Tuesday. Just short of 50 miles. Same time next week.

Thanks Paul-it was a good route.You'll be missed as CC!
I'm sorry I was sooooo slow-I'd like to say it's my heavier Winter bike bit it's me!Don't know why I'm suddenly so duff-only glad there were no small children out today or they'd have had to wait for me too!
Hope to be out Tuesday but I'll understand if you'd all rather do something else!
