I'm riding at Afan in a couple of weeks and have found i can get the train to Port Talbot an hour quicker than driving - does anyone know if there is a cycle track that links Port Talbot to Afan/Cymmer...from aerial photos looks like there might be. Would be more fun than the road.
Any one done it?

    Hey. yes i've done this one before. When you are in PT head north east to Cwmafan it's about 1.5miles. Then you can join the cycle trail shown as a black dotted line on the OS map then follow the river Afan. When you get the the Afan Bridge which is at Grid Ref. SS 80120 94304 cross over and follow the forest road which leads into another cycle patch which takes to the Drop off Cafe. Total Distance 10miles.
