Sunday Social Sunday 22nd May
« on: May 20, 2022, 04:25:51 PM »
I'll be out, so will plan a route for Sunday.

Usual format, around the 40 mile mark and at the pace of slowest rider.

All welcome, nobody left behind and at least one coffee stop!!

Will post route before Sunday

Meet at Physiques Brackla for 9am start

Seven riders out today, Tammy, Carl, Bob, Paul, Graham, Steve G and myself. Good day for it, dry, not to hot and gentle breeze.

Rode the route as planned but changed the coffee stop to Bonvilston to save riding into Llantwit.

Cheeky little climb from St George's to St Nicholas was a little tester but everybody passed with flying colours!  :D

40 miles @13.5 mph with a bit more climbing than usual 2679ft
