The Cambrian - 210km
Cambrian Minor - 160km
Welsh Marches - 120km
Saturday 10 April, Monkland Village Hall, Leominster
Entries are trickling in nicely for these events, three pleasingly scenic pootles into Wales. The 120km flirts along the border, taking the long climb up the Gospel Pass for some ace views over Powys and Herefordshire.
The Cambrian, meanwhile, almost reaches the coast, following an ever-hillier route out to Machynlleth, heading back the way you came.
Last year we had incredible luck with the weather. If you looked outside the village hall we used as a start, you could see a thick band of cloud, that stopped right above us. It stayed sunny all day.
Entry includes the usual colossal spread, before and after. If Mrs Jancey's up for helping, she'll do beans on toast for breakfast.
If you can't make that, I'll be riding all three routes* on the weekend of the 13th March if you want to join me.

*The 160 is actually just 160km of the 210km route.

edit - changed the day of the ride from Sunday to Saturday. oops!
