Breeze to Glyncorrwg Ponds (and return)

A steady paced ride along the stunning steeply cut Afan Valley to Glyncorrwg Ponds cycling centre. But don't be put off by the thought of steep hills, as we follow the gradual incline of the disused railway track along the valley, that now forms part of the traffic free NCN 887.

Apart from a few miles on the road between The Quays and Port Talbot Civic Centre, and short sections at Cwmafan, Pontrhydfen, Cymer and Glyncorrwg the route is traffic free along the NCR 887 shared path.

There are no planned stops other than a refreshment stop at Glyncorrwg; we will however stop as necessary to take a breather, and if anyone wants photos along the route.

Please wear helmets, have weather appropriate clothing and ensure that your bike is in good working order. It is always handy to carry a pump and spare inner tube/puncture repair kit. Please bring any refreshments you might need on route and money for refreshments when we stop.

We are a friendly bunch that particularly welcomes newcomers. We ride together as a group, so that nobody gets left behind.
