  • From the Cwm Cynfal Viewpoint we took B4391 and then the stunning B4407 and had the best ride of our trip. The road has phenomenal scenery, great twists and turns, and undulates across a wild open landscape.
    Good bit on the B4407 starts at 04:05

    The road you turned off (B4391) is a personal favourite. The A483 from Newtown to Crossgates is a spectacular biking road, with a decent cafe and a filling station at Crossgates.

    What a spectacular view. Maybe... One day... I'll see it for myself.

    One of my go to roads when ive got a couple of hours. Some lovely roads around there. Where you turned off onto the B4407, if you had stayed straight on, that is an equally awesome road that leads onto another equally awesome road

    The B4574 leading on to cycle rte 81 Is better I'd say personally but depends on the type of bike....so many good roads around mid to north Wales...Great video.

    Fantastic road, been along it more times than I care to think of. The B4407 is the Best kept secret around.

      If you think the 4407 is good try the 4391 - Llangynog to Bala as main, Arenig to Ffestiniog for pudding.

    It's not Snowdon, Snowdon was behind your left shoulder about 20 miles away (you cant see it from where you were). Don't go telling many people about this road now, it's one of my favourites because it's generally quiet 😉

    Nice ride over the A5 to that area. Also the road out of Ffestiniog over the tops is a great scenic ride. So many to choose from in snowdonia

    Stunning road - one of my favourites! 6:24 - Nope that is not Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) - that would probably be one of the hills of the Denbigh Moors, outside Snowdonia (Eryri) :)

    soon to have a speed cameras on it then!

    • @BikerMike_UK
      @BikerMike_UK  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Most likely. Although I guess so long as it's an accident free road it'd be hard for them to justify ugly yellow cameras in a national park.

    • @craigyllyn
      @craigyllyn หลายเดือนก่อน

      It won’t get fixed cameras and they’re usually tied up sorting out the numpties on the main roads ( we lost 89 bikers here last year )

  • @craigyllyn
    @craigyllyn หลายเดือนก่อน

    I laughed when you were saying how clear it is. The sheep own that road. 😂😂😂
    The other comments are correct. Yr Wyddfa isn’t what you were looking at. But hey! It’s a great view.
    Did you do the ride up from Penmachno to the well ?

    • @BikerMike_UK

      yeah the sheep got us just before the cyclist LOL

    FOOL !! you may wish to edit this vid - 5:38 shows you to be doing 90mph, which is a serious nick for this road

    Shouldn’t you have put the slower rider in front as they can try and keep up with you and get themselves into trouble??

    • @BikerMike_UK
      @BikerMike_UK  หลายเดือนก่อน

      On a normal group ride, yeah the slowest rider goes in position 2, but in this case she was in position 3 of 4, we agreed the order for us beforehand.
