We've all gone cycling mad with the Tour of Britain only a few weeks away, but make sure you keep your energy up! Cycling means burning calories, a lot of sweating and hard work with much needed snack breaks in between.

Here's our guide to the best places to rest your weary cyclist legs and nibble on a well deserved cake (or two)

Black Mountain Smokery, Brecon have luxurious fillings to make the fanciest sandwiches a cyclist could hope for. That'll keep you motivated!

The Welsh Venison Centre, Bwlch is well worth a visit for its fantastic deli. Fill up on the best - snack on pork pies, Welsh cheeses, olives, chocolates and cakes.

Talgarth Mill - The Baker's Table cafe will welcome tired cyclists in with open arms, then fill them up with delicious sandwiches and cakes before they head off again.

Black Mountain Gold, Crickhowell - if you're in dire need of a sugar rush, these artisan chocolates will give you a boost.

If you've worked yourself up into a bit of a sweat, cool down with an ice cream from Llanfaes Dairy in Brecon or Shepherds Ice Cream in Hay-on-Wye.

Of course, you could always indulge in some ready-made hampers from Authentically Welsh, forget the spreading and packing, save your energy for the ride!
