Nice ride around the Dragonsback at Coed y Brenin in the pouring rain.

On my own so went aruond at a steady pace. There were quite a few people around to start with, but once I got away from the visitor centre I barely saw anyone. Snapped a spoke in my rear wheel at around about 5 miles in to the ride, so stopped to remove it just as the heavens really opened! Rode the rest of it farily easily so as not to damage the wheel more than was necessary.

The Adams Family sections have all been heavily armoured and re-buillast time I tried them and this time they were easily rideable. Last time they were a nightmare!

As I got back closer to the visitor centre there were lots of groups out riding and the last few sections were closed with diversions in place so everyone was going the same way which gave me lots of people to catch and overtake.. Always a good bit of motivation.

A good ride depsite the rain, a little slippery in places but what do you expect from mountain biking in Wales. I should make the effort to get to Coed y Brenin a little more often.
