March 3, 2023,Circle through Llandrindod Wells to and Builth Wells

Great circular ride from the Fforest Fields site towards Builth Wells along cycle route 8 and out towards Newbridge on Wye. Across country on smaller lanes to Llandrindod Wells (stopping for a coffee break) before heading back to the site over the pretty steep col at Bwlch-llwyn (356m). Great ride if a bit cold !!
