8 of us set out from Physique on Sunday morning, me, Rich L, Karl, Mark, Chris, Tony and Paul L, and good to see Steve Chapman out with us after a few weeks absence for a step down ride.
The group broke up through Brynna and we made the decision to ride as 2 groups in Talbot Green, with me in the second group with Paul and Tony. It later transpired Paul had a mechanical issue, a slack rear derailleur cable preventing him from getting into the smaller gears. So we made some changes to the planned ride to cut out some later climbs but not before Paul had enjoyed the climb over to Beddau stuck somewhere the middle of the rear cassette. So after Creigiau we detoured to Miskin and took the road into Cowbridge from Pontyclun and the coffee stop in the Hare and Hounds. On the way out of Cowbridge we then met up briefly with the remnants of the faster group. We then took the long way round the coast home.
