About the event
Midweekers do Stan’s Magnificant ride.
Meet at BP service station in Chepstow NP16 5YS
Wednesday 3rdJuly 2024, 8.30 for 9am departure
This ride has been purloined (some might say stolen) from a guy, yes you’ve guessed, named Stan.Â
One of our team was so impressed when he did the ride with him he recorded it and the result is a slight adaptation really only relating to start and finish points.
The ride will start at the BP service station, where, in addition to fuel, there is a Greggs, Subway, Toolstation for those essential DIY items, and toilets.  We will start on some very nice roads up to Usk and on to Blackwood, Ebbw Vale, Llangorse to our first comfort break at The Honey Café, Bronllys. From there it will be a varied route, away from the usual A470  towards Builth Wells, Crossgates, Llandrindod Wells and on to Llawrtyd Wells for lunch and fuel (110 miles from the start).
After lunch you are in for a real treat with an absolutely stunning road. I would hazard a guess you won’t have been on before, and then on to the usual great roads in the area for our return back to Chepstow.
Total mileage is 185 on good road with nothing challenging. It will likely be a 7 hours round trip including stops hence the start time.
If you like a decent, or in the interests of inclusivity a ‘tidy’, ride, this is the one for you
This is a level B rideÂ
