Thanks Quiff , it has been nice having the time to do things. I must frantically pack and clean today though, only one night left in Aberystwyth

Bibio and Rictus, will get Chris to google the route for you when I've finished up on the laptop The route does come out a dead end if you don't happen to want to go to Aberystwyth. We conveniently found a mountain road taking us to Devil's Bridge which was a nice surprise and turned out to be an amazingly fun road. We practically had it to ourselves too, thursday afternoons are a good time for bimbles!!

well apart from your start, seems my memory wasn't that bad, I done that about 21 years ago, from there I went down the A470 and across a great little B road (b435 at Newbridge to get to the Brecon beacons off the A483.

Arrrrh memories....

Cheers Mark.
