Day three. Climb llangynidr mountain x2
Started out with a full English just to change it up a bit. Chef deep fried the mushrooms and ruined that experience but we rise above these things. Focus.
Set off with some trepidation today and the climb up unpronounceable mtn from the south side was long , straight and arduous. The descent was tricky due to crosswinds but enjoyable. Then we pressed on to another unpronounceable village for lashings of coleslaw (they love coleslaw in the valleys) . After nourishing our athletic bodies on white cabbage and carrot we rode alongside an unpronounceable reservoir turned around and headed home the same way. Soon came under attack from a vast cloud of midges ( do not ride in Wales without glasses. I'm not saying bring as many different pairs as Jonny but do not venture out here without protection and for fucks sake keep your mouth closed) then headed for the attack* on unpronounceable mtn from the more manly @andyp side . Actually this approach is much more manageable . Extremely steady gradient and much more interesting with the hairpins. Just sit and spin. Strava clearly shows I put a whole second into Lee Harris, a man I have long been locking horns with. I hope he enjoys being ranked 435th this year on this particular beast. Eat my wheel mutha fucka.
At moving forward
