afan forest wales

just got back yesterday, absolutely amazing. We done ' The Wall' the one beginning with P and the Skyline. 90km in under 24 hours, it was just brilliant and would recommend to any one, i'll post a link with the pics i took soon

we going back there soon, we only had time to do the wall ( we could only do the wall, we had a heavy night out in Swansea). How would you compare the wall to the skyline?

well, we done the 'P' one first, which has an overall lovely ride. The wall is a killer up hill with a fantastic down hill. Then we went down to swansea too, for a [censored] up. Then we done the Skyline in the morning, its a huuuuge uphill around 4-5 hours, then some fantastic scenary and an amazing downhill, it depends though. We done the whole thing, 46km however there are two points where u can cut off if u cant handle it. we forgot to bring food, which was an absolute killer. Also, the camelbak's ran out so we had to use the streams to drink from, and they're fine as i havent had a dodgey stomach. Skyline though = alot of cycling uphill. Although im proud to say i dropped into the Granny ring and stayed in second or third all the way. i'll try and get those pics up ASAP. When are you going, coz we're going back soon as well, any more questions?

4 of my mates are going back this weekend and i'd loved to be going but i will be on holiday with my Miss's. However we should be back there again about 2 to 3 weeks after that.

When we was there last it was pissing rain all day so hopefully when i go again i'd like to ride it in the dry.

Swansea rocks during the night though, wine street. Those Taffy's know how to party.

Catch ya later
