I was pulled out by St Johns Ambulance staff at the last feed station, close to hypothermia, was gutted, then sat watching those Devil riders turning up for a quick warm indoors and then kicking off when they heard it had been stopped . 60 miles of lovely but challenging riding then that grim hell !

I found the last section gruelling. The Bwlch climb was fine, a bit rainy but that was it. It was much worse at the top and the descent was borderline dangerous. Then there was the 35km slog to the finish, freezing cold and soaking wet. We pulled each other along. Not surprised they stopped it

The Black Mountain is better. Local bias…

Black mountain was beautiful. It was my favourite climb of the day. The Bwlch would have been great, but the rain had set in properly from the top of Rhigos onwards, with a wicked wind

A lot of devil riders got stopped at the last feed station as they pulled the plug on the event early

I was over on the other side of Swansea Bay and could see the clouds building over Aberafan and inland towards The Valleys. Well done.
