I went for a ride this weekend with my mate over parts of the black mountains.. and there are some seriously twisty roads!
So.. I have a route planned.. I just need to put it online, looks like I'll be taking a photo of the map, and penning the route in! hehehe
I have no idea when.. but Its not too long, so it can be done in an evening if anyone wants too ??
or a few hours on the weekend, and add some bits too it ??
Im off to North Wales this coming weekend on the bike... all the way up the A470 :o
So I can possibly fit it in sometime this week.. or in two weeks(ish) time.. or whenever it suits the majority... will try and get piccy of the route online in a few hours....
I was over that way myself this weekend. The road out of Myther(sp?) then up and over is great. I have a route somewhere which was mental and well wortht he ride.

Something like this....
balls.. uploadits gone crappy on me :( cant even upload a damn thing.. will wait till later...
Theres petrol stations in Aberdare that I recommend we make use of! theres also ones along the route.. but I recomend starting it on a full tank!
I live in Aberdare, but can come down the A470 further south if required to meet up etc...
I maybe up for this, but it will depend on the date. Send me a PM of the route. I'll run it thru' Autoroute and post it if you like.

I can't do any of that week; I'm on-call :(
I suggest organising it as best you can, and if I'm free then I'll be there.

We were over this way last weekend, did any of you see the accident at Llanspyddid? Biker came off, but we couldn't work out what happened. Also the tree down on A40 just beyond Llandovery?

I suggest M4 to J18, north on A46 to Petty France, right onto A433 to Cirencester then A417 to Fairford :thumbsup:
Fab roads once you're off the M4.
