Head north from Bridgend on the A4061 and when you reach Nant y Moel you head up into the mountains on the Bwlch mountain road. follow this all the way over to Treochy and turn left to follow it up the Rhigos mountain road. when you reach the A465 roundabout you can take the A4059 which eventually leads to the A465 Brecon Beacons road. or turn off this to the left at the diner and follow it through the lanes (it joins with the Sarn Helen one of the oldest Roman roads in Britain) to the Devils Elbow and Heol Senni until you join the A4215 and then back to the A465. Now there's a ride.

I live right at the start of the cat n fiddle and all the amazing twisty mounting roads leading from the cat n fiddle. Such a fun road to ride and doing it daily just for fun or to de stress is amazing

Those "allegedly tarmac" country roads are my favourite as well and why adventure bikes with a bit of poke and modern rubber were such a revelation to me.

How ironic, I was talking to the girlfriend yesterday about doing our first trip to Wales on my 2012 Versys and Chris and Bike World chuck a video up! Nice one.

Great video Chris. I'm making notes as you talk. Top man.

Chris thanks for the tour. It was really more about the scenery than the bike; but that's okay. I like that type of riding and have already read many tech reviews of the US version of the Versys. I ride a 2015 Harley Road Glide Ultra SE. I have been looking for something lighter and I like all the tech bundled into the Versys. Most reviewers talk about how big and heavy it is. It's 400 lbs lighter than my current bike. I did a very short test ride at a local dealership, it would work for me.

Great edit 👌 I live in south wales by Cardiff Airport and regularly hit the bwlch, rhigos, Penderyn to brecon then up to Llangollen or Aberystwyth on the ZX10R, the roads are amazing and very lucky to live here 🙏

I done a Honda MAC course about 20 years ago and stayed at the bikers retreat, the roads were as you say Chris amazing, especially as a new rider and one who had never at that point rode outside of London, this video has got me thinking 🍻

Aberdiffy is a great beach.
Lovely sand pools that get to 30 degrees in summer.
Great roads in the mx5 mk1

[huwbishop]

B4310 Nantgaredig through.
Two options, on to Abergorlech, or turn Gwernogle through Llydiad Nenog to Llanybydder.
Loads of tiny, dark roads. Forests and views.
