Whoever took that photo of you really knows how to handle a camera. Some kind of mountain biking David Bailey.

Hi Malc,
Completely forgot your forum name, so nice to put a real name and face to the forum name :D
We had a look at the beach and the tide coming in, had a quick photo shoot and then departe our ways from Yetiman. After a short road section, we headed up a road climb about 1km north of Tre-d-ddol, past a farm with 8 sheep dogs all barking at us (thankful their owner was present) and blasted down a lovely, rocky descent to one of the checkpoints. As punishment for our beers/fry up, we headed up the Artist valley (lovely but long) and into the forest. De-toured around Moel-y-Llyn and headed for the Anglers retreat.
We carried on until the checkpoint at 7693 and headed south to Mynydd Bytchan, through the Esgair-y-Ffordd forest and then onto Glasyn reservoir. We used the road for easy miles for the Dylife waterfall checkpoint (8794) and headed to the start. Completed 54km the second day :D
Did you find that nice cafe tat me and Jack went to? The coffee was vaguely exciting! Where did you head after that?
