This Guided 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, we also hold a valid 2 day outdoor first aid certificate and Safeguarding Course.

From Glyn Ceirog we climb up towards the Llwybr Ceiriog Trail which drops us into Llechrydau. We then head for Tynyfron via Bwlchydonge picking up the Llwybr Ceiriog Trail again dropping to Pen-y-gwelly Reservoir for the main break.
After the break we traverse across Craig-yr-hwch heading towards Spring Hill for the final off road big decent on the UC Way heading towards Pandy and back to the start

(Spell Checker did not like any of that)!

This route does have quite a few hills but there are no major roads to contend with

Quiet B Roads, Lanes, Trails and Tracks

We will stop for a proper break at about the halfway point and at any other time when required. This ride is not a race!

A Helmet must be worn. Bring clothing to suit bad weather including rain and cold just in case. Bring a spare innertube that suits your wheels. Bring something to eat and drink as will be stopping in the hills. There will be No shops open.

We never leave anyone behind
