THE HIGHEST ROAD PASS IN WALES 🚴♀️🏴🩵
Join me on a mini bike tour of the Vale of Ewyas and the challenge of riding over The Gospel Pass / Bwlch yr Efengyl. Starting from Llanvihangel Crucorney and following the Sustrans Route 42, I make my way to Llanthony Priory and then on over the 1801ft pass (549m) pass with a wild descent down into Hay-On-Wye. Sustrans routes can be found on their website or their YT is here: @WalkWheelCycleTrust My Bike: 17-year old Trek 7.1 @trekbikes It has recently had a groupset upgrade (@RideShimano) and you can find out more in this video • Why You Should Upgrade Your Old Bike #bike...
