The Wayfarer

Post by bigw42 »

Stubbsie and I took our's off to Wales to try the Wayfarer, heard it was relatively easy with a few tricky bits and thanksfully that's how it was.
We went West to East from Cynwyd up to the memorial Stone where we met some friendly sheep shearers!!

The most tricky and rocky section was as we came down from the stone and I was nearly bucked off, but using "momentum as my friend" I put mt trust in the bikes ability rather than my own and bounced on through.

Stubbsie went on ahead and tackled the first water feature having a slight mishap at the end but nothing to write home about.

I stopped to try and work out how deep it was as Dave had mentioned a "bow wave" but ended up using the old adage " he who dares gets a bed by the window" and went for it.

I kept left just in case I had to use the grass verge to rest on but again the bike's abilities outweighed my own and I went through with no more than a wet foot!

The rest of the trail was a little rocky with a nice section of railway sleepers ending with a nice little descent at the end.

A great day was had, weather was nice and dry and we lived to ride another day!!

Can we have a BBRR sticker please?? :laugh:

Nice one chaps - been a while since I've been on that one even on the mountain bike

Going down the other side towards Llandrilo is rockier and follow the left track after the bridge gets you to some seriously deep water in winter
