Got down to Brechfa, at last, on Saturday afternoon. Had a run around the Red, which was great – big climbs, views, misty in the trees, lots of swoopy stuff and quite a bit steeper than I was expecting. Great fun.
Unfortunately I was laid-out by a stomach bug Saturday night and couldn't go and do the Black on Sunday. I had to sit it out in the Drop Off bus (and grab some shut-eye in the camper) whilst my mate went out. Gutted I missed out because he came back with a rave report.
I did make a stab at riding on Sunday, but I was so wasted having been up all night puking that I couldn't even get around the Blue trail – what I did see of it was excellent too though.
All in all, great place. I know it divides opinion – I just can't see why!
