Although feeling sick after 40miles, I was relived to complete the ride. Thanks to all those who gave encouragement. I got back to the house had a wash and a snack, felt better, so I decided to drive back. On the way out I had a chat with your neighbour who sends her best wishes.

It's at the bottom of the valley after the Rhigos and just before the Bwlch climbs near Treorchy. It's a bit of a distance frm the start and finish, but probably quite a tempting ...
