We are going to ride the awesome Welsh Black Mountains for an epic XC Route.
I can honestly say this is one of if not the best routes I have ever ridden.
This is a route of approximately 23miles and 4000 feet of climbing and it is not for the feint hearted!
You can expect tough climbs, hike a bike in places, epic views and last but not least.....epic descents.
We will be in Wales so you can expect rain and maybe standing water, you never know there is a chance we are blessed with some sunshine (let's keep our fingers crossed)!
The riding here is remote so please take sufficient and suitable clothing, food, drinks and spares as we will not have anywhere to stop and refuel on supplies.

Meeting point postcode is LD3 0EP which is the Dragons Back pub car park. Meeting Time 9.30AM.

If you plan to come on this ride ( and I strongly recommend that you do) please can I ask that you register your attendance on the website ASAP.
