Lovely ride from Hailey Park up the traffic free Taf trail through Tongwynlais and Nantgarw, (some short on-road sections) then back on the cycle route and another on-road section through a residential area into Caerffili. It's a steady undulating uphill there.

Surface is tarmac most of the way, but with winter leaf and tree debris, so suitable only for bikes with treaded tyres.

We'll stop to gather breath en route and won't leave anyone behind

There's a refreshment stop at the cafe in Caerffili tourist Centre, overlooking the castle, (approx 30 mins). There are toilets available at the cafe stop.
We'll take a group photo (optional) there, then retrace our tracks back down to Hailey Park.

Please bring money/cards if you would like to buy refreshments.

Its also essential to bring a bike lock for the coffee stop if you want to sit inside.

It is recommended to wear a helmet, also bring a spare inner tube and tools to change it if you have them.

Please do not sign up for the ride if you feel unwell or are showing symptoms of flu or Covid-19 or have tested positive in the last 14 days.
