As Andy is away this weekend.  I hope nobody minds, but i have 2 suggestions for a big ride.  They are as follows https://www.strava.com/routes/2037642 (https://www.strava.com/routes/2037642) or https://www.strava.com/routes/2037644

Some of us did a similar ride last year which came back over the devils elbow;

The road from Upper Brynamman to Gwynfe is really good and the road from Pont-ar-llechau -> Twynllanan -> Trecastle looks brilliant if you have the weather.

Good Luck  :D

I was actually thinking of heading to Talybont-on-Usk and then Brecon or Llangynidr on Monday... depending on the weather.

Sunday = The Tour of Flanders  ;D

Just wondering as I was thinking I could meet you somewhere depending on which route you take.

I've just popped it in Strava and I think I'll give it a miss sorry, don't think I'm up for that distance tomorrow now that I've looked at it as a complete route.

Hopefully Harpo will still have his Mallorca Climbing Legs.

Have a good ride.

You don't want to be tired for the tour of Flanders Jason  ;)

Hope you get something like a light north westerly and you'll have a good ride guys. I'm tempted to join you but don't think it will go down well with the wifey
