N Wales GPX review

[ootini]

I've plotted what I believe to be a decent ride, decent as in mostly off road, could be enjoyable, at least one monster climb.
Just wondering if those of you with more map-fu and possibly local knowledge of the North Wales are could review it, tell me which bits will kill me, which bits are impossible etc.?

Might it not be a better move to put it up on gpsies or something?

Ah thanks for that. Wasn't sure how to do that.

(a) You've quite a bit of busy main A road in that, I wouldn't fancy riding up the road from Llanberis ... narrow, twisty, busy and full of drivers gawping at the hills.

(b) There's a few setions of footpath too, given that they're in the NP, it may cause you some grief depending who you meet.

(c) I'd consider taking the other BW after Llyn Cowlyd (the one that runs south). Chances are they'll both be a boggy mess but at least it's a down hill boggy mess, then pick the BW up in Capel

(d) I wondering whether it might be nicer in reverse? If you do reverse it, ignore point c.
