There is no question this is a big day, but it is worth it for what you see and accomplish along the way. We will provide fuel (cake), guidance, skills, and fabulous views.

This is an amazing ride exploring the Black Mountains in South Wales. Expect some big climbs, techie descents and some great single-track sections too. It will feature epic descents such as Rhiw Cwnstab off the northern escarpment & the amazing 'Light-Speed' track down the Grwyne Fechan valley. The day will finish off with the blast down Blaen yr Henbant, more than 3 km of super flowy single-track!

About the Ride

Rides are between 5-6 hours long, and include the following.

  • Small groups of 8 to get the most out of the day
  • Some epic views
  • Learn a little local history
  • Maybe a little wild foraging or a dip in the stream
  • Support and guidance to read and tackle trickier terrain
  • Whooping fast descents (or poodle and ooh and ahh at what you see)
  • So many smiles
  • Post ride chill with a cold/hot drink

 

Meet your hosts

Siôn at Raven Adventures knows every trail and path you can ride (and some cheeky ones we sort of can)
Beth is the one who isn't afraid to try something new and get lost in the process, and she makes a mean cake.

We will meet Pont Cadwgn Car park at 10am to ride by 10:30.  Here will do a thorough bike check and answer questions about the ride.

Please bring a packed lunch and plenty of water as there is no where to stop for snacks once we start riding.

There will definitely be flapjacks… and maybe cake if time allows for my baking hat to get on before the ride.
