my brother jake.

planned a good route for yesterday.my brother was coming along on his first proper day out.steady as she goes.

wanted to get to talgarth the quickest way possible.so here.



onto here.




down here.



then here(old picture).



stopped for fuel in talgarth then over the river.



quick bollock towards builth and checked out a lane we found last week.





damn,bolt croppers required.



rode back to the start and then onto a nice small mountain range.track to the left.









bit further on and i think jake is feeling the pace a little.getting back into off-road is deffo harder on a big bike.



we skirted around hay and did some wonderful forrestry tracks,smooth and gritty.just the job for wagging the back end.the bike,the bike!

then it was over hay bluff.



felt wrecked by now myself.so,back to the dog in cilfynydd by road for a nice cold one.
