Rhiwbina to Ponty loop #RideLikeG

Join me on this lovely loop from Rhiwbina to Pontypridd and back again. We'll take the Taff trail to Pontypridd, stop for a drink at a cafe by the river in Pontypridd, and then return via the lanes to Gwaelod y Garth then back to the start point.
There are a couple of short steep ascents on the way back in the lanes. Everyone can take their time on the hills and we can regroup at the top.

Meeting at Rhiwbina village crossroads (outside Northwood estate agents). There is parking on the streets arounds the village and Rhiwbina train station is very close. We'll take the Taff trail to Pontypridd, stop for a drink at Coffi Co and then return via the lanes to Gwaelod y Garth then back to the start point.

Much of the route will be on quiet roads or cycle paths, with some sections on busier roads. Please note there are a couple of short but steep hills on the lanes on the return journey - we can regroup at the top and will never leave anyone behind.

Cafe stop at Coffi co in Pontypridd. You may wish to download the Coffi Co app in advance or you can order inside the cafe.

Please bring a roadworthy bike, helmet, spare inner tubes and some water.

First-timers welcome!
