Hi

I´m visiting Wales in October, and I´m looking at getting a day or two of trail biking in.

Can anyone point me to a good location for trails?I prefer non bike-park stuff, don´t mind it being technical.
Both Snowdonia and Brecon Beacons will be on the travel plan, så both areas are within “scope”.

Then, is there any good bike rental places that rent out good FS trail bikes?

I contacted a place called Drove Cycles, but they did not bother to reply.

Regards Anders

Beics Betws for the Marin and Penmachno – hardtail only http://bikewales.co.uk/bike-hire/
Beics Brenin for CYB and maybe more,you’ll have to ask.

Drover cycles are good, post on here regularly too.

Clive Powell in Rhayader hire Giants out and he’s a top bloke.

For the Brecon side of things…Try snooping through this link:

The National Park Visitor Centre at Libinus is worth a look and ride from too, very basic routes but nice to spin the pedals and have a base with a cafe! 😀

I bought this pack of maps, was a lot easier than planning it myself on a OS map so definitely recommended:

Good luck dude and have a nice trip 🙂

I’ll 2nd Clive Powell, search for Elan Cyclery.

Thank´s for all the info, great help!
