We have only done 8 miles and it's cake o'clock already!" exclaimed Meinir. Prior to cake excitement Pete had hammered the lanes from Glynarthen to the Ffostrassol arms to meet the Meinir and Jayney. More climbing for Pete whilst fresh - as -daisies the 2 girls sort - of powered up, then down the hill to Plwmp. Twists and turns with chit and chat they passed through Caerwedros before taking on the hairpin challenge (at least downhill) that defines Cwmtydu.) After meeting a

Short on quantity but high on quality and others out recovering, it was Pete and Jayney taking to patrol around Mwnt and hoping to avoid holiday traffic at such an early hour. Clouds were kept at bay and the riders took an early coffee stop at the Felinwynt (ex butterfly place) cafe. Flitting onwards they traversed the coastal lands towards Blaenannarch and whilst descending to Neuadd Cross Jayney lost her computer somewhere. A search revealed nought, oh well that's on the Ch

The Peloton formed up outside the old Post Office in Cenarth today, unusally the cafe of choice has already been decided - surely a first for a VT ride????? The pre-ride banter was up to the usually standard - Dr L's new Zipp wheels drawing lots of appreciative looks and no indiscreet questions about how much they cost!! The red wheels trim matched today's Italian thoroughbred of choice and the Castelli ensemble but the yellow valve caps clashed somewhat but hey! El Presiden

Once upon a time, weekday evening VT were a mellow affair, a gentle spin, never managed a pub stop but hey! All this came to an abrupt halt when a certain Magic Roundabout character returned home... On the upside, the Thu night ride is a great place to get a few PBs - 25 for yours truly over 2 rides!!! So, eager not to be dropped before we'd started, the Peleton started to gather outside the Taskmaster's house 10 mins before the start time. When he appeared, all was quiet f

Enjoyed my first outing with the Velo Teifi social ride, thanks everyone and see you week after next 🚲🚴🏻‍♀️ I faced my fears and cycled up cwmcou hill 🙈 not a continuous ride up but a work in progress!

Huge numbers turned out for the Emlyn Tourers ride, well 5 to be exact. Welcome Emma Burton to the gang, who it transpires, was a member a few years ago and is now a potential triathlon supremo out to hone her skills with the tourers. Training to be a chemist's dispenser Emma has obvious skills at providing under the counter commodities for anyone wanting to enhance their cycling...... no don't go there Jayney! Also glutton for punishment Jackie returned, bedazzled by the rid

I arrived in the Lampeter Co-op carpark to find the Ruffy Tuffy 100 Milers already there having an in depth debate about the Club's position on eating bacon butties during a club ride before 10 am. Despite a spirited case by Barrie, the Chairman used his veto and off we set off towards Tregaron. The ride was livened up by a sighting of a Heron, a dead Hedgehog & a car driver who felt we were occupying too much of his road. Despite driving a very obvious silver car, he felt th
