Abergavenny used to be full of bikes on a summer Sunday 100s of them, I like it around Crickhowell, sugar loaf, used to be a PGL adventure centre on Llangorse lake, walked many times on pen y fan, cribbin, to do the horse shoe walk from the dam, and drive the gap road in our old Landy

Yes of course water over the bonnet, been all over Wales we stayed at the off road centre at llanachinda farm years ago they had a map room with all routes marked up, 110 county 200tdi, snorkel, bfg muds, polybushed pto winch etc, also went on a 10 day tour to the Alps with Atlas overland, days of old before most routes were shut down, we had the fosse way locally and salisbury plain was good.
