PTW

Done this on sunday, 115 miles of up and down mountains. Started from just north of Abergavenny with first climb Gospel pass, other climbs included devils elbow (ouch!!) and a climb out of Llangynydir towards heads of valley road at the 100 mile mark.

Did 8 hours 5 minutes, got to say was a lot harder than the dragon ride, the climbs were steeper and in some cases as long, while the descents were quite technical on narrow roads.

For some reason this event has failed to sell out the last 2 years and I would say is a real challenge right on our doorstep.

Chris Allen also road it, we did a stint together after about 85 miles.

Maybe if you'd mentioned it before hand, there might have been a few more P.T.W.C.C. riders in the field.
