Hilly ride to Rudry

We start in Penylan, near the Co-op and outside Moginie James Estates Agents and cycle through the Eastern suburbs of Cardiff towards Old St Mellons. We are then on quiet country lanes and joining cycle route 4 heading to Machen. We then climb up towards Rudry and then sharply descend towards Michaelston-y-Fedw. We then head back to Cardiff via Old St Mellons, through Pontprennau and Cyncoed.

This is a short but hilly ride from Cardiff heading East towards Michaelston y Fedw Machen and Rudry. We do over 1000ft of climbing, but worth the reward of lovely views of Caerphilly Mountain and the mountains above the Rhymney Valley.

This is a hilly ride from Cardiff heading East. There are some steep climbs and sharp descents, but the views are lovely! We will be cycling on suburban roads, a short part of off road with a gravel path and quiet country lanes. I’d recommend either a road or touring bike with good gears for this ride.

There is a stop for a drink half way round this ride at Havens Well Coffee Shop in Rudry. We will be also be stopping to admire the views and get a breather at the top of big hills!

Please wear a helmet, bring a snack, money and water.

We never leave anyone behind
