Sarn helen help needed

[Jasext]

The people at Llanerchindda Farm (north of Llandovery) sent me the following request and I thought it worth disseminating it as much as possible. Overall they do a lot (submitting documents/attending meetings) to keep routes open. Our responses might just help support the cause. The sections referred to are the ones from the Banwen area north and the next section that goes up towards Brecon.

SARN HELAN ROMAN ROAD - YOUR HELP NEEDED

The Green Lane Association (GLASS), Trail Riders Fellowship (TRF) and ourselves are compiling user evidence to back up claims that the Sarn Helan should remian open for vehicles to use.

If you drove or road Sarn Helan (Ordinance Survey grid reference from SN 879 117 to SN 925 166 and from SN 925 185 to SN 961 241) between 16th November 2001 and 16th November 2006 we need to hear from you.

Please contact info@cambrianway.com asking for a copy of the form that you would need to fill in.

We need as much evidence of use as possible to help ensure that this fantastic road remains open.

Oh I simply fell off at about 1mph. In the water but unfortunately on a section of solid rock and went down with my left knee taking the brunt.
I was at the back so Phil and J didn't see me.
Luckily the bike was still going otherwise I would have been kicking it over for some time.
Anyway the bruisings starting to come out now and after a week it's a lot better than it was, although I've been hobbling about this week.
