500 miles for 500 towns - The penultimate day by Phil Broadhurst

As we approach 500 Fairtrade Towns in the UK, Fairtrade supporters are taking to their saddles for a 500 mile cycle relay from Aberfeldy to Cardiff. We're blogging about their journey that will conclude in Cardiff on Monday 1 November. Learn more about their route at http://www.fairtrade.org.uk/500fairtradetowns

Hay riders arrived safe and sound but sadly just too late to join in the unicycling at the fairtrade fun day hosted by amman valley school. good thing about being late is they met up with toby and john who are riding today.
all enjoyed a fairtrade brew at my house, with interruptions from scary trick and treaters who were greeted with chocolate eyeballs and geo bars!

Ammanford riders set off this morning watched by the town's AM and MP, who -let's put this on record! - invited toby for a chat in The House Of Commons sometime!

Special mention too for the lovely mayor of ammanford who refused to go last night before the hay riders arrived.

Now at the environment centre swansea, enjoying more cake, after an earlier stop at bikeability, where riders, who were meant to be resting, instead had fun on the various amazing shapes and sizes of bikes that bikeabilility use to ensure that more people can enjoy swansea's lovely cycle ways.

The sun did shine as they passed the registry office too. And the forecast and optimism is good for the rest of the day. Next stop tesco for lunch, and to ask why they've not got fairtrade drinks in their cafe, then the lovely Living Cafe in Cowbridge, then .... the end!!!
