If you are not sure and need convincing that this is a must for your 2014 calendar then check out the Etape Eyri and Tour de Mon for a flavour of what's in store in Conwy come April 2014.  You won't be disappointed!

The Gran Fondo Conwy will take you on a beautiful, inspiring, iconic and challenging ride around the best roads Conwy and Denbighshire have to offer - in fact, they're probably some of the best roads to cycle in the whole of Wales and the UK.

All routes will start and finish at the beautfiul Conwy Marina next to the iconic and spectacular Conwy Castle. The marina will become a mecca to cyclists for one Sunday in April. 

We are very proud to be working with our friends at Chain Reaction Cycles and all the communities along the route.
