Hello,

I have a wife and child free weekend in July and aM looking for recommendations for Wales.

I've already done:
Afan
Cwncarn
Coed y Brenin

I'd prefer South to Mid Wales, as I'm coming from Essex and would like to keep the drive minimal and have more riding. Reccommendations for accomodation for 2 (mates) welcome.

Looking at XC/trail riding please.

Cheers
BJB

    Brechfa. Gorlech (red) is fun, and even the ride up is ok.

    I second Gorlech trail, Brechfa. Done it for the first time on Wednesday lovely run. Fortunately its only 30 mins away from me. Surprising what you find on your doorstep. Cwm Rhaedar is a nice little red in Llandovery which isn't that far away also.

    Thanks folks - I've done a bit of research on MTBWales and they have a handy filter on the site - I went for Red in South & Mid Wales and Brechfa would seem best (also in terms of getting there).
