Leaving Taffs Well Station Park and Ride we cycle up the A4054 to Pontypridd and then the A4058 to Llwynypia. We then start climbing gently up the B4223 towards Treorchy, turning off on to the A4061 to start the climb of the Bwlch. After regrouping in the car park at the top we'll take the A4061 down to to Pricetown. From there it's generally down on the A4061 to Bryncethin and then the B4280 through Heol y Cyw to Brynna. We climb through Brynna to the A473 which we follow to Talbot Green. Another climb through Talbot Green on the B4595 before dropping down to Cross Inn to pick up the cycle track that runs parallel to the A473. This takes us to "Power Station Hill" and down to Nant Garw. From there we retrace our route back to Taffs Well. We'll get a chance for a coffee stop in Talbot Green, but this is not until the 60k mark so make sure you're stocked with food and drink.
