Glad you had a good one, Bri. Yes, I will visit Elan Valley, know it well. I once walked across Wales (well, mostly - I started with the Wye Valley walk, 95 miles) from Chepstow to Conwy, backpacking, camping all the way (took about a month). Elan Valley was part of my route, and biked it a couple of times (SV650 and then Fazer thou) since then too. Being just west of Oxford now and virtually on the A40, Wales seems like a logical choice for me again this year, not too far and so not too expensive fuel-wise. Must ride some of that magical A470 again, too, so a lot to cram in.
