The Gospel Pass in the Black Mountains- the highest road in Wales. This is some of the upper part of the descent to the small village of Capel-Y-Ffin. Front and rear mounted GoPro Hero 3 cameras- camera bike is Hamish Henderson. Music is Paloma Faith - "Do You Want the Truth of Something Beautiful". Brilliant album, worth purchasing. Ride today was 72 miles with 7,000 ft climbing, including The Tumble and The Gospel Pass from Hay-on-Wye. Sorry for the naff editing!

Not sure where I have posted this, maybe just in a private cycling circle, but here it is anyway. One of our Welsh descents put to music. Sorry if this has appeared everywhere by mistake! Gospel Pass Descent

Why is it called gospel pass not a very welsh name?!

Sherrie Bird Hmmm, very good question! I may have to hunt around for the answer. Going back there in 3 weeks to repeat the ride so maybe I can ask someone!

Thanks for your reply I just wondered if old time preachers were there preaching to travelers or something.

According to Wikipedia, the name is supposed to derive from the passage through here in the 12th century ofCrusaders preaching and fundraising.
