Welcome...........

Mountain Mayhem time again....I try out the Wolverine look as my beard gets shaved off, Amy models her new, just fitted front forks (video coming...) before joining the RAF ladies team as a surprise team member, Craig enthusiastically starts the grind up the Kenda Klimb, and the Retrobike team member shows us what we used to wear, and ride. Good fun, I think we did 22 laps and IT WAS MOSTLY DRY!!!! so whilst there were muddy sections, we didn't need mud tyres - now that's a first. Waiting for the results to be posted to see how we did but a big thank you to the team of Marcelle, Mark, Graham, Craig and me (I made up the numbers...). Well done to Amy too for doing her first night riding ever at this event, and putting in 3 laps and enjoying it too! Photos here.

Rides are organised  every weekend on Saturday. The rides start at 8:30 am from the car park in Nelson (follow the link on the left for a map) and cover most parts of the Valleys, with forays further afield to the Brecon Beacons, Black Mountains, Forest of Dean and  Mid Wales. The Forest Enterprise tracks at Cwmcarn and  Afan Argoed are often visited, and we  organise trips to North Wales to sample the Coed-y-Brenin, Nant-yr-Arian and Bettws-y-Coed routes during the summer months. 

The Club attends various organised events every year, and provides support to club members thanks to the help of a Sportlot grant which has allowed the Club to purchase a set of bike tools and a pop-up gazebo to allow bike servicing in the dry, whatever the weather. If we've gone camping to the event, we have a club barbeque the evening before the race and have a good time.

The Club has also  organised longer trips to the Lake District (Tim Woodcock's Lakeland Loop), the Sierra Nevadas in Spain (check out the excellent  http://www.switch-backs.com to see where we went), Morzine/Les Gets and last year we went to Les Arcs. We try to offer a varied mountain biking experience that means the weekend ride is most definitely the high spot of your week.....why not come along and give it a go?
