It's kind of hard to go wrong down there really but if anyone has the 2011/12 BB200 route, that'll give you some good pointers ... sadly, I can't find mine.

Aye, plenty of quiet streets in Rhayader to park. Pick up the cycle path rather than the main road and just head for the visitor centre ... good sausage rolls :-bd

How long do you have? The Trans Cambrian Trail Trail incorporates Rhyader (I have the the gpx file) but it's 3 days?
