    Ay-up,
    As in the title, my parents own A caravan up in the hills, never been with my bike, any locals shed any light where I can or can’t ride?
    Can you ride upto the stone circle without upsetting walkers or is it a bit of cheeky?
    Thanks in advance

    You lucky, lucky man.

    Start down the road to Aber.
    Go up past the little car park and climb up the tarmac to the even littler car park!

    Head up on the obvious track, then head back up right and go through the gate.
    Remember this gate.
    Climb up to Lyn Anafon.
    Have a rest.
    Call me names.
    Head back down the way you came.
    Try and remember the gate.

    Turn right at the junction and follow the original track uphill.
    Stop at the top.
    There should be a signpost on your left.
    Go left.
    Wave at your caravan.
    Enjoy the ride home.

    My favourite ride anywhere.

    Damn, beaten too it!
    🙂

    The drop back down from Llyn Anafon is ace. 🙂

    I usually run wide on the off camber left hander after the fast straight rocky bit.
    Nearly soil myself every time I do it.
    Then forget and do exactly the same thing six months later.

    Grassy descent down towards the iron gates/golf course with the rocky slabs super grippy in the dry, puckering in the wet.
