Event Summary

Event Overview

A circular route starting from Llandeilo and following parts of the 2019 Women’s Tour. Heading up the Towy Valley, climbing up to the village of Bethlehem. The village has long been an attraction, often simply due to its name with many still heading to the village at Christmas to have cards stamped with the Bethlehem postage mark.

From here you head onwards to Llandovery before turning towards the Black Mountain and Brecon Beacons National Park for a few challenging climbs and some fantastic views, before returning back to Llandeilo.

 

This ride is suitable for a wide range of riders, particularly anyone who is looking for an event that's both challenging and relaxed, it includes over 1500m of climbing, but is all about having fun while rising to your own personal challenge and doing it at your own pace.

 

  • Distance – 52 Miles / 83Km
  • Climb – 5,018 feet / 1550 metres
  • Fully signed route
  • GPX files for download
  • Safety car out on route
  • Toilets & changing to start/finish
