    You can start from afan or glyncorrwg. Either way there's the climb back up at each end but if you start at a fan, you can take a short cut to avoid doing the climb at whites

    Oh yes, it definitely rained this morning. I was contemplating riding to work, then as I was eating my toast, I realised I was suddenly underwater. Must have had a good 2 inches of rain in 30 mintues.
