~ Bicyclemania Ride ~
Hot,
Hot, hot about 95 degrees out & about in the Welch
mountains. The heat was collecting wilting riders by the
truck load, was it just me, or did you see lots of riders
with unhappy faces & broken seat-posts too. I came across
about 5 on my 75km ride, I was beginning to wonder if I
would be next...!. For this year John Lloyd (Builth Wells
Cycles) had put together a new route and what a epic
challenge it was. The route recipe mix was, Long climbs,
narrow single-track, downhill dark root runs & high Moor
tracks & a stream or two thrown in for good measure. One
thing is for sure, we will remember this one for quite some
time. |
