Back for 2023 a '5 Star' reviewed 200k Severn Bridge Series GOLD GRIMPEUR AAA-rated event with free refreshments & food at the start and a Pub location finish.
Now with the option of event validation by E-Brevet app.
Includes free finishers' rectangular route map patch for all riders.
It's very audacious with 3750m of climbing, but breath-taking as it takes you exploring the Southern Edges of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
It's a stunning but lumpy route with plenty of amazing views exploring some of the less well-known roads of South Wales.
The North East section of the route passes you by 4 Welsh castles to stop, view and enjoy.
You will stop at the Castles of Abergavenny, Grosmont, Skenfrith & Whitecastle.
You can also ride past the entrance to Usk Castle & a 100m detour will take you to Clytha Castle if you fancy stopping at them as well.
While the Western Section allows you to Climb 'The Blorenge', (The Tumble) with its 400m of ascent on its little-used 'traffic-free' track and ride past Llanelly Quarry - part of the World Heritage site.
The South Eastern Loop explores some of the quiet remote lanes Wales has to offer.
You'll have a Canal Side Coffee Stop at Goytre Wharf to enjoy before you tackle the first of the two 20%+ segment climbs in the Lanes of Wales on the day.
The northern section allows you to explore some of the National Cycle Network 'traffic-free' tarmac routes.
An event for experienced Randonneurs, capable of riding long distances in all conditions.
Free finishers patch for all finishers & an Event Medal available for purchase £4.00
Entry on the Line (EOL) is possible - £3 surcharge, payment by card or cash.
LAST EVENT FEEDBACK REVIEW –13 September 2022
Cracking day out, lots of quiet roads, clever route that keeps you guessing and never really gives your legs a rest. Get yourself across the bridge and enjoy the views. Nice1 Oliver.
