**** This Breeze bike ride is a beginners mountain bike ride, brought to you by a qualified Fundamentals of Mountain Bike Leader. To deliver rides as per the remit of the Fundamentals of MTB Award, I also hold a valid 2 day outdoor first aid certificate. ****

This optional extra is part of the ride Dambusters II: To the roof of North Wales!

This is the Marchlyn Mawr hill climb.

Please note that:
- You need to be able to lift your bike over a gate to access the closed road up to Marchlyn Mawr.
- The surface is all tarmac (but this ride is classified by British Cycling as a MTB ride because it is a closed road).

If you wish to complete the Marchlyn Mawr hill climb as part of the Dambusters II: To the roof of North Wales ride you will need to sign up to both this ride and the Dambusters II: To the roof of North Wales ride which can be found here:
https://www.letsride.co.uk/rides/dambusters-ii-to-the-roof-of-north-wales
[A separate sign up is required as this part of the ride will be led by a qualified MTB leader as it is a closed road].

Ideal for Breeze riders who want to challenge themselves and have fun! And those who are new to Breeze rides are very welcome. We ride up hills at our own pace and regroup at the top. We never leave anyone behind.

I always carry extra supplies (just in case!): sweets; water; period products; first aid kit; and puncture repair patches. So please let me know if you ever need anything. Please do let me know if there’s anything I need to know or can do to help to make this ride more accessible for you.
