I picked up a cycle route at the Tourist Information Centre in Cardiff and prepared myself for the trip in the park near the City Centre of which I took a picture.
From the park you are able to see the huge Cardiff Millennium Stadium
Welsh is totally different from the English language, but some words are rather recognizable for people who speak English Through the woods and hills I cycled all the way down towards to Dinas Powys, a small and cosy village. I went to a local supermarket where I bought a bottle of water and took a rest at a disused quarry near Coed yr Eglwys.
A good view of the height I had reached by bike - Wales is absolutely beautifulUnfortunately I had a puncture after having cycled for another half an hour and I was not able to fix my tyre.
I headed back to Cardiff by train and enjoyed the beautiful weather in Sevenoaks Park again. Regrettably I wasn't able to finish my 20-mile cycle route, but at least I can say that I have been cycling in South Wales.

Hallo Bart.
Hier weer een berichtje van 1 van je trouwste lezers! Zo te zien is het nog leuk daar en zie je veel van de omgeving. Ik ben gisteren op de radio geweest bij BNN en mocht een vraag stellen aan Tom Helsen (wie?)! Verder gaat hier alles nog z'n gangetje, Feestje piept veel om aandacht maar dat krijgt hij ook van ons. Tot over 8 dagen!
Man, je wordt nog sportief daar aan de andere kant van het water! Ziet er wel erg mooi uit allemaal, als je langer was gebleven was ik even langs gekomen:)
Geniet van je laatste week!
You're quite the Lance Armstrong over there!
Did you manage to communicatie with the Welsch? Can you learn you blog readers some interesting phrases perhaps? :)
