It was the B4574 Nick..the road ive been wanting to do for some time...running parallel to the A44...it was a nice road but man i was cold to the bone with all that fog....on the pic with the winding water in the background...that water is the start of one of the resorvoirs....cronfa ddwr craig goch...the wind was hurling the fog through & every so often you'd get a glance of the water opening up...a shame really i was in stunning scenery but couldnt actually see much if it but i defo think that road would appeal to some foccers interested in scenery.....instead of going straight to rhayader theres a turn off which joins you to the Ellan Valley circular.
Yes the 44 is a must do fast road but these are equally enjoyable going slow.
Off to celtic manor tomorrow for a spa day, evening meal & overnight stay so im being prised away from the bike for a couple of days.
However it is crazy to go all the way to Newport without nipping into south wales superbikes showroom :b , ill chuck my kit in the boot i case i blag a test ride on an MT09 or anything really.
I'll hope to get more Welsh pics next week to let everyone see what they need to come see. 8)
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
