1. Two major climbs, first past the Royal Glamorgan Hospital and second up past the wind farm, and plenty of smaller climbs to keep it interesting. The road over the wind farm is steep in places and very narrow, cattle grids and sheep mean care should be taken on the decent. Views from the top are spectacular. The final leg through the valley to Ogmore and the coast road to Llantwit is a real gem. | |
