Great riding James, Tom and fair play, you dad did well on that 'Off the edge' section, that's crazy steep. If you want, you could check out the other side of A470, the hill opposite to Garth and ride up Craig Yr Allt passing the Rockwood Riding Centre, Blackrock Road, nr Caerphilly, there's lots of steep tech lines over there and some more steep flow ones too.

Great riding as usual, glad you're showing some parts as riding N Cardiff trails tomorrow. It'll be a soggy one for me though. There's lots of trees still down over Fforest Fawr and loads is Ganol Fawr as did a few night rides this week and some trees too big to move.
