Afon Doethie and Cwm-y-Rhaiadr - the perfect combo.

Some mates and I met up yesterday and rode the Doethie Valley/Llyn Brianne loop. Lots of gravel road climbing then the superb Doethie Valley singletrack bridleway. After that we headed down the road to the Cwm-y-Rhaiadr trail centre. The 7km feature rich red loop is a perfect finish to the day if you've got the legs for it!! The picture was taken near the top where the view is fantastic.

What was really good was that when I organised this, I thought only 2-3 of us would show up. As it happened there were 6 of up which made for a superb day out.

I'm spending a week in West Wales. So planning a number of XC rides in the area. Should be a superb week.
