For the third year there is a women’s-only, 42km Cycletta “prologue” as part of the annual Wiggle Dragon Ride, starting in Margam Park, Port Talbot.

This route, though short, is hillier than the typical Cycletta ride, so be prepared for a bit of a challenge, as well as fabulous views from the top of those climbs.

The 42 km Cycletta route joins three days of sportives that make up the Dragon Ride, with the 43km Corto, 153km Medio Fondo, 226km Gran Fondo, and 302km Dragon Devil routes.

  10 of the UK’s Toughest Hill Climbs

There will be expert advice on hand, mechanical help for riders, a free car parking, a ride rescue crew, a pasta party for all riders, entertainment for spectators, feed stations, electronic chip timing, free massage, a finishers medal and results texted to your phone when you finish.
