Hi guys just after a little information on this

have any of you guys have ever ridden it?

looking at going up there for a few days in the next couple of weeks and was just wondering what its like?

does it fair well in bad weather or does it turn into mud bath and alot of pushing?

Also if anyone has got a GPX they care to share that would be great.

and most importantly where is the best refueling station (pub & curry house)

thanks in advance

Google Clive Powell and give the shop a call.

He will give you the best up to date news.

And make sure you do the "Golf Links" descent.

i've ridden around a lot of the greenlane routes around rhayadar on my motoorbike, there looks to be some great mountain biking there. Pretty decent curry shop on the main street, Ty Morgans is a great wee B&B and all the pubs are within walking distance of each other. The locals are friendly.

The MTBing around there is great, a lot of it is open hillside and very exposed. Some of the tracks get wet but not really a muddy area (Monk's Trod excepted). Outside of Rhayader you have to be pretty much self-sufficient. Well worth the trip IMO 8)
