if you want to go to wales, both of these rides are excellent, I have done them and couldn't think of much more fun I'd had on a bike. 4 days and 5 days respectively.

What are the train connections like at either end of the EWE route?

Those look great. Think I've done some off the North Wales bits of them already and they've been some of the best offroad I've done in this country south of Scotland.
However family limitations mean at best I can only manage a two day trip so will have to save them for another year.
South Downs Way is annoyingly convenient as my parents live in Lewes & it's a relatively short train journey from London. I know it's not amazing, but it's the perfect sort of length for an overnight trip.
Maybe I'll do the Wayfarer one - that does look pretty good. Better on mtb or 'gravel' bike?
Alternately there's King Alfred's way but am slightly put off that by the awful facebook group.

Can anyone who's done both routes tell me how SDW compares to the Trans-Cambrian way? For a two day/overnight wild camp expedition? Similar sort of average speeds or not?
(I'm sure there'll be a thread about Trans-Cambrian somewhere but I can't find it)
