Stage 3 - 86 Miles (Builth Wells to Cardiff)
The team of riders (follow the links to see our training progress) that will also be on the challenge they are :
Steffan Ford - Done the IOW and that’s it on the cycling front. I’m from Cardiff, Wales (Grand Slamers) and am aged 31. I was once fit and ran and swim for my county but now am a very unfit Dad !!
