A great route to ride… The Brecon Romp
The Brecon Romp
Best for Riding roads made famous by Top Gear (but they’re pretty good nonetheless)
Length 86 miles
Route Start off the A465 at Garnlydan, B4560 to Llangyndir, Talybont-on-Usk, then head for Merthyr Tydfil, back into the hills on the A470, loop back to Hirwaun on the A4059, then A465 again to Abercraf and into the hills again on the A4067, loop round onto the A4069 Black Mountain Road
Love it because It’s remote, wild moorland, with some amazing strips of tarmac
Take a picture Pontsticill Reservoir
Stop for food Aberglais Inn just outside Merthyr
