Marshmallow 16 Report post Posted February 16, 2015 Had such an awesome day yesterday! Great to meet you Simon and Chris. Love the photos. I have a couple on my camera, will try and get them up at some point. Hopefully this link will work if you copy paste the whole thing. I reckon we did almost 200 miles yesterday, with only a couple navigation mistakes! Highlights being the B4235 to Usk, B4520 between Brecon and Builth Wells and A4067 through Glyntawe to Abercraf. Lovely views, even better roads. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/M48+Interchange+(W-bound),+United+Kingdom/Usk,+Monmouthshire,+UK/51.8560162,-3.1429906/Brecon,+Powys,+UK/52.1288922,-3.409555/Brecon,+Powys,+UK/Defynnog,+Powys,+UK/51.7994975,-3.7112092/51.5327849,-2.5346787/@51.8614071,-2.9486631,10z/data=!4m51!4m50!1m10!1m1!1s0x4871942599cb90eb:0xa79fa932e8bd97c7!2m2!1d-2.617975!2d51.600498!3m4!1m2!1d-2.7024023!2d51.646063!3s0x4871955146fd62e1:0x974a03bf48c02fb7!1m10!1m1!1s0x4871c118b764ba9f:0x2b773c1d5b9e032f!2m2!1d-2.903404!2d51.703533!3m4!1m2!1d-2.9387066!2d51.736564!3s0x4871db5bdbf99dbd:0xdd579a9d506c2c2b!1m5!3m4!1m2!1d-3.2535097!2d51.8718916!3s0x486e2eb86f9d6c51:0xb15c62878b82c3be!1m5!1m1!1s0x486e295269352fb7:0x9a709ed66f96fdd9!2m2!1d-3.391463!2d51.9489469!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x486e295269352fb7:0x9a709ed66f96fdd9!2m2!1d-3.391463!2d51.9489469!1m5!1m1!1s0x486e4a8f1ae59349:0x371060be962d1910!2m2!1d-3.563444!2d51.937551!1m0!1m0!3e0 Would defo be up for this again or another route in the summer when it would be less murky!

Tareim 343 Report post Posted February 16, 2015 looking at the pics I wish I was able to join you, looks like it was a good drive I should be able to make the next one in the summer if it's a Sunday, however if one is sooner then could only do Saturdays Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Westonian 13 Report post Posted February 16, 2015 Hey Lins thanks for posting the map, now I know why I burnt through so much fuel, or could it have been to do the speed we were driving. 2 Marshmallow and Quixote reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quixote 35 Report post Posted February 16, 2015 Thanks for the link to the route...for those who are mobile, here's an image Hey Lins thanks for posting the map, now I know why I burnt through so much fuel, or could it have been to do the speed we were driving. Speed which remained within the speed limit, of course, but there was a lot of 2nd and 3rd gear action 175 miles of fun plus the boring 160 miles to/from the area explain why I got through a tank of fuel! 1 Westonian reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quixote 35 Report post Posted February 16, 2015 Last couple of pics...use of Google Maps to find out where we were! (52°04'52"N 3°25'45"W) It was a bit parky up there! 2 Marshmallow and Lauren reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
