Never been to Brechfa before, going to be in Cardiff next week with a mate, thinking may as well head down there as I’m not likely to be any closer any time soon (it’s a long way away from anywhere isn’t it!).
So… I’ve ridden Afan a fair few times, Cwm Carn loads, is it like either? Or is it quite different? What’s the terrain like, is it very steep and very rocky like the other two, or less so?
Wondering which bike to take too, mainly dictated by the climbing to be fair. Are the climbs there really steep like Afan and Cwm Carn, in which case a granny ring is necessary, or less steep and middle-ring-able?
And how long are the trails and how much climbing involved?
