Devils Staircase Powys

Post by wightegi » Mon Jul 13, 2015 8:10 pm

On Saturday a group of us left Rhayader for a bimble, we have never done the staircase before but what a super ride it is, not for sport bikes but very well suited to the small cubs and and other bikes the were with us.
This is a road you have to try at some time and there is a lot on google about it . Steve W. who we met in Aber was heading to do it in the opposite to us so he may add a bit later.
One highlight of the weekend was that little Annie dragged David along and we found a ball for her.

Thanks for that information on David. He lives about five miles away from me and I have visited his house in the past. I now find I have lost his email address!! Glad to hear he has got over his problems now. Maybe he may start messaging again?

4 of us including David spent the Sunday afternoon talking with the odd drink and then off to a pub for some real ale after ,I got a bit of sunburn :oops: I think it did him the world of good to be with the nutters err cubbers again. Has any one seen the weir down the road from the monument in Rayhader ?
