I've Thursday 11th to Saturday 13th August in mind, there's flexibility if anyone else wants to come and other dates suit them. Twins at the Rhymney House Hotel are £120 for 2 nights b&b, £60 per person.
Friday ride from the hotel:-

Have fun, the weather forecast is scorchio, apparently! I will be in Wales next weekend, and only a little northeast of you, but not on the bike sadly. Somewhat ironically, I was just down the road from Merthyr at Walters Arena (Glynneath) last weekend .....
Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....

I could get a bit interested in this John. If it's not going to clash in any way with SWB's annual Wales Weekend in June then dial me in as a provisional for now :) .

We did some awesome roads, and some not so awesome roads. Lessons learnt for planning future routes in the area, which was a major point of this trip over to the principality.
A couple of pic's, second shot includes a strange teapot....
