I've handled one of the black trails at Coed Y Brenin that way though, and aside from destroying a pair of waterproof trousers (got shaken off the saddle bag and went straight into my chain) I was fine... so hopefully no worse than that.
next time you come down here bring all the gear. One of my fastest ever times on Barry Knows Best was fully loaded up on the trek.

Got the change to the route email. Seems fair enough given the circumstances.

My riding partner might appreciate the offer of the first hill being a warmup rather than proper pace too. :grin:

It nice tribute to have the neutralised start and a moments reflection.

I also note that the change of route adds another 261ft of climbing, which is good as I was worried the route was a bit flat :wink:

No lumps at all on the Braunton. Is a real shame. :lol:
