The Gap MTB | Brecon Beacons | Cycling up a Mountain 

It was amazing up there. The day after was a lot more cloudy!

It's a great route I'm sure you'd love it

There were some amazing views from the top

It was amazing 🏔️

Forest Velo goes extreme

Thank you. I think I underestimated The Gap slightly and would like to do it again on a full sus bike, with a little less air in the tyres!

@@CycleXplorer I would also recommend doing it earlier in the year so the vegetation doesn’t hamper you on the climb and it might be a bit drier for you😂 🤞🏼

@@ieuanwilliams8148 thanks for the tips!

Yeah this wasn't relaxed 😂 however the bits of the Taff trail were great. I'd look into that if I were you.

Bog monster. Do you think you might do the Gap

I think I might! 22miles doesn’t seem that hard but it sure does look challenging. Did you buy any Welsh cakes? X

@@Laura-dv6cb go for it. No but I had one in a tea room just off the route

@@Laura-dv6cb you will love it. We had one in a cafe but didn't buy any on this visit to the Brecon Beacons and the gap

Yes it was pretty rocky, for some reason I thought it would be more gravelly. I do like the look of the Taff Trail, which goes from Cardiff to Brecon. One for the future.

@CycleXplorer will have a look at the taff trail cheers

@@Foxtrottangoabc think it's 55 miles so could be a nice out and back route!

@@CycleXplorer sounds like a great idea , a quick wizz round the Brecon Gap than back to Cardiff 🙂

We love going there! Thanks for the tips on pronunciation 😊 you've probably been to the Old Barn Tea Room then 😅

@@CycleXplorer Not ventured there (but my folks have) and have been to the Red Cow Inn a lot! 😄 They do e-bike hire from the Butchers Arms and I was sorely tempted the last time we went with my family (but they don't really do bikes!)

@@jadeellis388 haha. We went to go to the red cow but they didn't do food that night. We went to the Aberglais, was good.

@@leestephenson4083 I can only imagine how bone shakingly bumpy it was! What happened to the wheel?
