  • Ride Dyfi Bike Park’s opening a bit later – Remember how we told you to rde with the Athertons next week? Well apparently it was too short notice. Lots of folks said they couldn’t make it, so the Grand Opening party got pushed back to Aug 23. The park is still open now, but the celebratory BBQ is pushed back a bit. DyfiBikePark.co.uk
