Hi.
I may be staying in Swansea on weekend and would be interested in meeting up with a club run, or individuals for hardish ride up to Bwlch and Rhigos, or other hilly route on weekend.

Ogmore is further away Steve?
I will be in digs in Swansea Uni and think they go from Llansamlet, PTW go from Taibach.
If I do not stay there I will go out from the shop in Cardiff.
I want to do hardish ride and ideally 70 to 90 miles.
If I do Cardiff, it is 20 miles before I start so thats a bot extra, but want to do a good course and not around coast of Cardiff and Newport .
Hoping to get some nice climbs in also
Where do saturday riders go in Cardiff this time of year and how far?
I suppose it also depends how hard the track is on Thursday and Friday also !!

You going on sat? Weather looks ok.
We could meet up and go down a470 together
