Brechfa Forest SOCIAL RIDE
Hosted by SheRides Ambassador Charlie 🫶
Scroll down to sign up!
What to Expect:
This is a social ride for anyone above beginner level, riders must be comfortable in tackling blue trails.
We will meet in the spot listed below, get acquainted and head out on a blue graded ride. The ride will be around 10 miles in length and there’ll be cake in the car park to finish. The perfect way to finish any ride!
There are toilets and picnic area at the listed spot, but no cafe, so please bring your own food and plenty of water. Depending on how long we ride for we may have a ‘lunch break’ of sorts in the middle of the day either on the trail or back at the carpark and after lunch we can decide if we want to keep riding or call it a day, you can always finish up whenever you need to.
It’s a super loose structure; we won’t be rushing to get done, we won’t be pushing to tick off features, and we won’t be forcing anyone to ride anything they aren’t comfortable with- the aim is to have fun and ride bikes!
No pressure, just good times!
Where to Meet Us:
Charlie will be waiting in Byrgwm car park at 09:45, ready to ride at 10 am (we’re not going to hang around too long, so try to be on time so you don’t miss the ride).

What Should you Bring?:
It’s super important to note that we will not ride with anyone who is not wearing a helmet!
Other than that, the protective gear that you bring is up to you- we normally ride with knee / elbow pads and maybe gloves, depending on the conditions. You’ll also need a bike that is trail suitable, safe and in working order so we can avoid repairs at the start of the day.
There is no cafe at Byrgwm carpark so please be sure to bring enough snacks or lunch to sustain you during the ride, and don’t forget to bring plenty of water!
What Will it Cost?
The ride itself is totally free, we won’t be charging you anything for our company.
Byrgwm carpark is also totally free, so find a spot and get your gear on!
We will have the entire day to ride, but there is no pressure at all if you need to dip out at any point. Our rides normally last around 4 hours or so, but the needs of the group will be taken into account.
Extra Info:

And a quick disclaimer from us, please do take a look:
This is NOT a guided ride and there will be no coaching, we’re simply meeting you at the trail head to make some friends, push each other as a group, and get women on the trails. We do not accept any responsibility / liability for any accidents, and we will refuse to ride with anyone who arrives without the correct safety equipment or an unsafe bike. All riders must sign up in order to ride and in doing so you are agreeing to these terms. All riders must be aged 18 or above.
