For those of you who would enjoy bike ride on a summer night this is fun. I did it last year with some friends. Its 67 miles of mainly flat cycling with plenty of other cyclists. I estimated there were about 600 last summer. Its free. Take at look at https://www.facebook.com/events/1730570620539256/ BigGrin

Perhaps an opportunity to show off the new LC cycling shirts for those that have them?

I did it last year and enjoyed it, but a bit cold for a short sleeve top Marcus!! It is a leisurely ride, with a cake stop in Llantwit. You don't want to get to the Mumbles much before the pub opens for breakfast!

I'm liking the sound of this already 😊. Cold, cake stop and not a race! A nice way to celebrate my birthday (well my birthday is the day after).

Julie!!!!!!
Julie!!!!
You are up for it...then find a tandem, steel one, rent one, borrow one, Christ I will try and push one down from Tonypandy and I will come with you.
We can go halfers on the rental charge etc!
I make an experienced stoker.
I have been on the back of one from London to Paris.
Was a big laugh.
Come on now, you know you want to LOL
Yes, Stu and Julie 67 miles in the front showing them how it's done!
As long as you are good at steering!
Yeee haaa!

Stuart ! that's very spooky...I was in Evans cycles this morning asking them if they can restore the tandem I have in my garage! its not been used for over 15 years and has a kiddy crank on it currently for when Holly was a toddler- so you definitely won`t fit it at the moment! will see what I can do - I need to search the garage for the old parts first as Evans don`t have and can`t source for me. will let you know how I get on!

Julie, why not speak to Cardiff Cycle Workshop to see if they can help you out. Local non profit organisation, well worth trying as they recondition old bikes daily.
