Have a couple of days to spend at Afan next week while visiting family and looking for opinions as to which trails to try.
I promised to take the wife on the Blue Scar trail as she's wanting to give mountain biking a try then i probably have the rest of the day to myself and then one full day of biking on my own.
Want to make the most of my time so any advice welcome.
In my order of preference...
The wall with a bit of bike park
Blade (if its been fairly dry a few days before)
Whites
Penhydd (tame enough to do with the mrs)
Want a longer ride, then do the W2 or whites and blade
Not sure if skyline trail is open or not these days, if it was id consider it for a longer ride.
BPW is also not a long drive a way and could be an option for the 2nd day?
Thanks guys, will see how the wife gets on and maybe give penhydd a try too.
BPW is a bit far as I'm staying the other side of Carmarthen and would also take me out of my comfort zone lol.
What is the best option for a long ride? Skyline, W2 or a combination of others?
Cheers
Brechfa might be an option then?
Will be trying to get a sneaky ride in at Brechfa too if I can but usually end up there when I'm visiting and haven't ridden afan yet and fancied a change.
what Creamegg said...Brechfa much closer to Carmarthen...you could do the black and red combined for a longer rider (about 38km). was up there at the weekend and it was lovely and dry...a bit of the red was closed for repairs, but only a small bit
Some of my "mates" rode the Blade a few weeks ago & thought it was shit. I say "mates" cos they didn't invite me...
Just so happened I was over the hill at [url= http://www.trailguru.co.uk/garw-valley-mountain-bike-trails ]Blaengarw[/url] having a great time. The blue is over stupidly quickly, but if you like rocks the black is superb. I'd highly recommend.
