Mark Beamont (right) leads the ride-out at Bridgend Farmhouse Round-the-world cyclist Mark Beaumont led a ride-out from Bridgend Farmhouse on Saturday to celebrate the opening of the community cent…

A huge thanks to Mark Beaumont for generously giving his time to officially open the Bridgend Farmhouse Bike Barn today! “Quote from Mark today:

“I didn’t get into cycling for winning awards.
I got into cycling for the sheer love of where a bike can take you”

Absolutely this! ⬆️
Helping people find joy and freedom in riding a bicycle is always at the heart of of what we do.
Bridgend Farmhouse is a special place who helps so many, in so many ways.

Thanks also to Daniel Johnson MSP who kindly came out to support us and join in on the led ride.

Well done to everyone involved and thanks to for helping out with the ride!
