1000 sheep road... 56K = bang
Right, I have a few photos to show... You will have to be patient, as my photo hosting is having a fit.. and I cant upload them easily.. so heres a few to start off
http://premium1.uploadit.org/valleyboy/New/291.jpg http://premium1.uploadit.org/valleyboy/New/292.jpg Nice twisty roads, followed by the odd straight bit every once in a while.. please note furry critters on side of road.. this is empty compared to what it can get like! http://premium1.uploadit.org/valleyboy/New/293.jpg http://premium1.uploadit.org/valleyboy/New/294.jpg |
Anyone with suggestions for free photo hosting ?? As my ones FUBARD right now... :cry: cant upload bugger all...
|
I use photobucket.
I'll get Trading Standards on you. There's only a couple of sheep on that road! Cool looking road though. Will have to ride it next time I'm in Wales, (next summer) |
VB..I find Image shack pretty good fella. BTW where these snaps taken after the amorous contact or before? :wink: :)
|
More being uploaded as I type...
No PH.. no contact was made with these furry animals.. or should I say no sheep were harmed during the photographing :lol: |

And then these.. not 1000 sheep road, but a good road worthy of mention.. up and over the Rhigos.. where I crashed last year :oops:
nice corners, pitty about the road surface :evil: http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...yboy2k/322.jpg http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...yboy2k/323.jpg http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...yboy2k/324.jpg http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...yboy2k/325.jpg And my trusty steed which carries me across such roads... http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...yboy2k/328.jpg http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...yboy2k/329.jpg http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...yboy2k/326.jpg And a nice picture to finish it all off... http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l2...yboy2k/330.jpg |
Bite the bullet and go Smugmug
:wink: Nice pics btw. I do like that road. |
I will go smugmug.. after I get paid next! :lol:
I wish they would resurface the road over the Rhigos... as you can see.. that bend looks rather inviting :twisted: |
Great pics mate, your bike is gorgeous :)
|
Very sweet looking road there - though you can tell it's South Wales...
... it's a bit, well, flat. :wink: |
Those roads look bleedin handsome VB. I could spend and day on little Jessie's like that. Nice one! O cracking bike to, the proper colour. :wink:
|
Nice pics VB, but to be fair I don't think any photo can do that road justice! It's awesome.
The photo of pen y fan, where was that taken from? Looks like we are going to do it this sunday if the weather holds out. :shock: |

hehehe, thats why I took the photos in the errrr flatter part of South Wales.. I could go Brecon direction and take photos ;) Dean.. the photos of Pen Y Fan were taken on top of the mountain near Rhigos... directly above Tower Colliery... very nice views from up there :D |
I agree with Deano photos just dont show THAT road off to the best but I guess it's difficult to take a picture of the start of that road with the shear drops on the side of the road!!
|
VB...I love that first side pic of your bike. That is a must for the Kawasaki 2007 calendar mate. :wink: 8)
|
:shock: - wow, what amazing roads! You are so lucky to live near to them!

Some nice roads them be. I have similar being north of VB. I just wish the roads around here enjoyed the open view that VB has.
I can't push nearly as hard as I'd like to for fear of running a sheep over at 50mph+ and seriously leant over :( The only road that does have open views that I've found so far, probably has a worse surface than the second one you posted about VB :( (A543 for those in the know). |

As for that hairpin type corner, been round that i have |
Yes I gathered that when I wrote it, but I don't let details get in the way of a good joke!
|
Quality photos. :thumbsup:

I found the B4407 an interesting road when I was up that way last year... going round a corner with a stone wall on the outside.. with a rather large sheer drop the other side.. makes you think twice about going fast around there! :lol: Only ended up on that road, as I was staying by Capel Curig, and wanted to get to Tanygrisiau to visit a friend.... took a wrong turning somewhere... :lol: |

|
Cracking photos grommit...
but I only counted 14 sheep then fell asleep... ( ha... no not worth it) Lovely roads on brill scenery, Taff I envy you. but then again... we do have some great roads up here too... |
Great roads, ruined by sheep. Aside from Valleysboy's incident, I've had a (very) near miss with a sheep there. Also a lad I was riding with managed to kill a sheep and stay upright (trying to outdo my deer, I think) with his missus on the back! :lol:
|
great shots...makes me realize how much i miss it over the pond...damn i need to get back
|
:cry:
Aww VEEB, I'm getting all misty eyed here. Ah the memories. And I know about your bets you barstewards..... Fair play :lol: I wanna be back on two wheels |
