My Community

A number of the chasers weren’t able to make the annual pilgrimage two weeks ago so we’ll have another attempt this Sunday.

Direct route out to Brynamman and over the Black Mountain to Bethlehem and photo call. Then across to Fairfach, no detour to Llandeilo, and on to Llandybie and Ammanford and Pontardawe and direct route home from there the way came. It is going to be around 96 miles, I’ll get the route up on Strava or Garmin before Sunday.

At least two cofffee stops, one in Pontardawe on the way out and possibly Ammanford on the way back. There are a few cafes in Pontardawe if we turn right at the lights instead of heading straight up the hill and Rich L did give me the name of a cafe in Ammanford which is escaping me for now.

Pace at the speed of the slowest, which may well be  me, and no one to be dropped or left behind. See you all Sunday.

GRAND DEPART AT 8AM

Hi all, we discussed club kit in the AGM earlier in the week. There is some interest in the Alpine long sleeve jersey and Pactimo have now added some bib knicks and tights to their custom range. To be able to add any of these products into our club store we need commitment to the minimum order levels of 5. Can you please advise interest, the jersey would be in the caffeinated colour scheme.
 
https://www.pactimo-custom.com/products/mens-custom-thermal-cycling-jersey-alpine?_pos=1&_sid=727628d63&_ss=r £102.85 (discounted price to the club)
 
https://www.pactimo-custom.com/collections/mens-custom-cycling-jackets-vests/products/mens-custom-storm-thermal-cycling-bib-tight £119.00 (discounted price to the club)
 
https://www.pactimo-custom.com/collections/mens-custom-cycling-jackets-vests/products/mens-custom-storm-thermal-bib-knicker £112.20 (discounted price to the club)
 
If there is sufficient interest we could then look to get these products into the store and open the store up again in the next month or so.

Thanks
Richard
