Myself, Ron, Nick H, Paul L, Mal, Jonathon, Ben and Adrian left Physiques in some niceish weather despite what the weather man said. Was a nice bump ride. Tootling along the route until we got to Clwdadd-coch when instead of going to Duffryn gardens we went to Welsh St Donats then Llancarfan. As anyone who has ridden through Llancarfan it doesn't matter how you plan to leave Llancarfan you have to ride up a big hill. We went for the steepest one I could find. It's called "Monster Mountain" on Strava. Adrian said it went upto about 20% then fell off the scale. It's a case of digging deep and not letting your back wheel slip. From there as we recovered from that bump we went down past Fonmon castle and Gileston then through St Athan to stop at Cafe Velo instead of Duffryn gardens. Then after that we carried on towards Sigingstone and Lampha hill where we started to split up to go our own ways. Nick and Ron through Colwinston I carried on through Lampha, Wick and back home via St Donats and back to Llantwit.
