Dragon Ride 2027.
Road · Margam Park, Port Talbot, Wales · United Kingdom
13 Jun 2027
Starting and finishing at Margam Park near Port Talbot, the Dragon Ride heads into the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) with four route options that share the same feed stations and finish field. The climbing menu is the region's greatest hits - the Bwlch, Rhigos, Devil's Elbow, Glynneath Hill, Bwlch Bryn-Rhudd and the long drag over the Black Mountain - with the Devil route close to 300 kilometres and two enforced cut-offs. Waves roll out in distance order from early morning, and each route is signed in its own colour where it splits from the Devil.
