What's Blade and Penhydd like. Any other recommendations.
Usually we do W2.

You may find the climb out of Glyncorrwyg somewhat less shady than it used to be.
I thought Blade was quite lovely.

The Blade makes Afan worth the trip.

Blade was fantastic, warmed up with Penhydd. But the new Cafall trail at Cwmcarn was best of all.

We were there Friday. Blade was great, near the end there is the option of the old whites final descent or 'the rock' we were advised by the guys in Afan lodge to take the rock. We did, it was great!

Penhydd is a 'nice' ride around and we also did the quick blast that is Blue Scar which was great fun joining the berms.
