Around Usk Reservoir

From Brecon Leisure Centre, we cycle west towards Sennybridge and from there we head over to Usk Reservoir to cycle a gravel loop around the lake. We retrace our outward journey back to Brecon.

If you are free and fancy getting out on your bike for some fresh air, fun and non-competitive exercise, join us on a fabulous bicycle ride starting and finishing in the car park at Brecon Leisure Centre. This ride will be led at a social pace, with no one being left behind. All adult women are welcome.

Country lanes, mountain roads, with a gravel section around Usk Reservoir.

Plenty of opportunity to stop on route to catch your breath, have a drink and enjoy the views.

Please bring a well-maintained gravel bike (this ride is NOT suitable for lightweight road bikes with smooth, narrow tyres). Wear a helmet, gloves and appropriate clothing for the weather. We climb high into the mountains and the higher we go, the colder it gets, so please bring a windproof and plenty of warm layers. It is good idea at this time of year to have a set of lights, for both the front and rear of your bike. Remember to bring lunch, carry a drink, a spare tube, puncture repair kit, lock and pump if you have them.

We’re friendly, we love cycling, laughing and we never leave anyone behind.
