Wanders in Wales

Did the 117 mile Dragon Ride Cycle down near Porthcawl/Bridgend - 7hrs 13mins/17mph, made the top third of the field. A great, well organised race with lots of long steady climbs and fast swooping descents. Pity I fell off the bike 3 times though!!!

A day on Pen y Fan in the Brecon Beacons, visiting Crispin Flower and family. then headed off to Snowdonia, where I climbed Snowdon via the airy and hairy Crib Goch; and then 5 of the Welsh 3000 footers on the Carneddau range from the lovely Idwal Cottage Youth Hostel.
