It was great to get together again for the club annual dinner and awards, and big thanks to Elaine, for her hard work in organising the event for everyone. The club returned to Tafarn Y Maes for a great welcome, top food and drinks. During the meal riders took part in the raffle with lots […]

The riders were ‘treated’ to a great end to a successful time trial series. The conditions were spot on for this course, a gentle tail wind helped to ease the riders up to Pontarfynach, ready for the descent to Lovesgrove. It was hoped that the full Devil’s Bridge Hilly route could be used, which would […]

With only two chances left this season to ride the faster Llety Gwyn course, eight riders turned out to test themselves on the well established 10 mile TT course. The predicted rain stayed away and the North Westerly wind proved in the favour of the cyclists, with some great times (and course records) on the […]

The local 10 weekly time trial was proving as exciting as the Tour de France, with some great local battles between riders! The north westerly wind was against the riders heading out, especially by Blaengeuffordd and didn’t really seem to help much on the return leg, maybe this was more to do with the tiring […]
