I've been looking at going to rhayader (elan valley) what would be the best route from bristol to there. Don't really want to use the a40 if it's biker boring so twisty roads all the way their would be good! (if possible)

Any good options?

What's you plan mate? Would you like an escort (NO NOT A CAR)

I'm sure someone would be able to help out if you wanted mate, Mofo's or the Taffia

I've got a decent route for you, PM your email address I can sent you a PDF of it. There's a bit of A40 but not much, its sort of difficult to avoid completely.

Easy. Old severn bridge, Usk turning by chepstow races, usk, abergavenny, talgarth, builth wells, rhayader, left in town cross to Elan. take your pic of all the roads signed to reservoirs and if weather nice go over the mountain road to Aberystwyth.
