Current events

June 2026
Monday, 1 June: U3A ride from Llandeilo to Abergwili (near Carmarthen). Cancelled due to weather.
The intention was to travel with bikes on the Heart of Wales line between Gowerton and Ffairfach which on some services can take 10 bikes. To do this the options are: d. Gowerton 07.41 or 10.51 for a 48 min journey to Ffairfach. From there cycle on the new cycle path to Carmarthen stopping for a snack in Stacey's Kitchen in Abergwili. However as the later train is too late John has arranged for the group to meet up at 10.30 in Ffairfach in the car park for Ysgol Tregib (school now closed), Heol Bethlehem. This leaves you the options of catching the earlier train and spending two hours in Ffairfach or driving or cycling to the rv.
To return from Carmarthen there is an approx. half hour train service to Swansea via Gowerton.
Please let John know if you plan to join the ride.

Providers

Wheelrights.
As noted on the About us page the events which Wheelrights provide include promotional rides and evening meetings.
Several evening meetings a year are held for our members. (Watch this page.) Talks are given at some. These meetings are open (and free). Detailed planning is done in our Routes sub-group. Members who feel they can help are encouraged to join this group.
Walk Wheel Cycle Trust
They changed their name from "Sustrans" to "Walk Wheel Cycle Trust" on 30 September 2025. Their main role is to create such important things as the National Cycle Network and Safe Routes to Schools. Currently their focus is on upgrading the NCN and encouraging cycle commuting. These aims are shared by Wheelrights. We hope also to help them - as we have in previous years - by manning stalls or supporting some of their other activities.
Cycling UK
They changed their name from "CTC" to "Cycling UK" in 2016. On 1 January 2008 the local CTC group ceased to be a District Association and became the Swansea and West Wales CTC Member Group. (This group decided in 2016 to retain "CTC" in their name.) The old sections disappeared so that the rides which used to be the responsibility of the sections are now coordinated by the one group. They take place on Sundays, Wednesdays and often on another day. Most are at a moderate pace between 30 and 50 miles and are graded 1-5. Most are in the range 2-3 with Grade 1 indicating an easy ride suitable for the less fit or inexperienced cyclist. Wheelrights provide Grade 1 rides by means of our Cappuccino rides.
Cycling UK are active nationally in campaigning across the UK for better cycle provision. For information about the local rides visit the CTC Swansea page on CUK's website.
