Title: "Dragons Spine"
Post by: birdman on July 20, 2015, 09:12:30 AM

Just wanted some advice or tips from anybody who may have done this.

Looking at putting together a ride from North Wales to South Wales. I have read a few articles and its often called the Dragons Spine.
It will be for a bunch or army lads who can hold 17 - 18 Mph comfortably.

Have any of the Oggies done this or parts of this? Any tips or advice greatly appreciated.

I chose North to South because it's all down hill?? Isnt it?

Cheers.

Si.

The Dragons spine is over Crickhowell, Tretower Cwmdu, Pengenffordd to Talgarth.. A bit of a climb from Tretower side, but from Talgarth it's a bit better.
