Pacers-Sunday November 10th

[Andy H]

Tempting fate by saying the forecast looking OK for Sunday.

Will post a route this afternoon.

[xrayspecs]

Can we have one of your signature hill fest routes please? As I missed last weeks due to a cold..

[Rob Jones]

Can I request long climbs rather than steep ones...the latter hurt my legs and lungs. Oh and wind assisted too ideally....And sunshine please

[Steven]

Can I have sunshine and wind assistance, no climbs and a nice cafe stop please !

[Rob Jones]

There are at least 3 themes of agreement then! 

[Andy H]

Computer in work useless, can't run garmin connect.

Planned route is east via Brynna, Llantrisant Rd, Pentyrch, Tongwynlais, Forest Rd short climb up Caerphilly mt, Lisvane, Rudry, Caerphilly, ( around the mountain  or up it for cafe stop  ) Radyr, P-S-E, Welsh St Donats, Brackla.

Not sure where else for coffee, St Fagans or Duffryn?

Approx 55 miles

Hill fest in two weeks, not around on 17th

[Andy H]

Could possibly drop down from Rudry for coffee stop in 'Hapus' ice cream parlor in Machen.

You will need a canoe to get through PSE if this weather keeps up

[Andy H]

Ever the optimist I predict it will be fine on Sunday.

If it's not we'll go around or paddle!

[Andy H]

Bit longer than I thought, suggested route for Sunday

Sod the hills (kind of), I just really REALLY hope it's warmer tomorrow than my ride this morning:

Avg Temperature:   2.2 °C
Min Temperature:   0.0 °C

Bloody Hell it's getting cold.

[Rob Jones]

Where on earth were you riding and what time of night...it weren't quite that cold in Llantrisant! I was overheating this avo, it was mild by then.

[Jason T]

A couple of chaps in work wanted to go over the Rhigos, like a fool I agreed to meet them in Pontypridd at 07:00.

06:40 Llantwit Fardre -> Ponty -> Abercynon -> Aberdare -> Rhigos -> Tonypandy -> Home = BLOODY COLD
