Last weekend I went to a family wedding that took place near Brecon, in Wales. It's in a national park and I'd never been there before so I took advantage of the situation and stayed for 5 nights, cycling round the beautiful local countryside.
I intend to go back as soon as I can on a walking trip. It's magnificent country, and the tops of the Beacons are spectacular, but dangerous (it's where they run the selection tests for the SAS), so you need to be well equipped to go up there - lycra and poncy little cycling shoes won't cut it. Here are some photos, taken by a man in lycra and poncy little cycling shoes: <http://www.web-options.com/Beacons/> This is the route of the main ride I did over the top of one of the smaller hills: <http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/brecon-to-ystradfellte-and-back> B -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
