There will be a 'social' group ride this Sunday. I've been unable to ride the last few weeks due to holidays and then injury, so will look forward to getting out!

Usual story, 30 miles or so at a steady pace, with a coffee stop and nobody left behind

All welcome, start 9:00 Brackla triangle

5 riders out this Sunday, mixed group with the quicker ones holding back to support the 'Social' riders. Weather a bit damp to start but brightened up through the ride
Out were Mark J, Mark R, Karl, Rahul and myself.
Did Porthcawl loop, out via Park Slip, Margam, Water St to coffee at Coffi Co on the 'marina'.
Mark J and Karl split off, on the way home, for extra miles.
Overall pace a bit quicker than the normal social group but good to push the effort now and again.
I'm away next Sunday but will be out on the14th

Usual format, ride at the pace of the slowest, no dropping and at least one coffee stop. Around 30-40 miles depending on who is out.

4 riders out for a social paced ride this Sunday. Rahul, Richard, myself and new rider Theo. Fortunately the weather forecast and indeed the weather itself had improved and we largely stayed dry with just short shower on the way to Porthcawl. Kept the pace nice and easy while Theo got to grips with riding in a group and also the challenge of the hilly bits. Found a new coffee shop that has opened on the harbour, 'Coffee corner' had good coffee and nice selection of cakes.
Home via Cornelly and Waunbant Road to Laleston.
50km well done to Theo and hope to see you out again soon

I'm away the next few Sundays so unless another member is able to take the group the next Social ride won't be until Sunday 30th June

Mixed group ride today, with 5 of us out. Ben, Chris, Martin, Rahul and myself. Rode a sunny loop around the lanes in the Vale, with coffee stop in Cafe Velo.

Pace well controlled by the faster riders, thanks for that!

Started to break up on the final section after coffee stop and Rahul and me rode final section around the coast together, while the others pushed on for home.

Great weather and finally out in shorts and short sleeves   :)
