Episode Four features the crew riding a beautiful small single carriageway road to Llyn Clywedog viewpoint and rewarded with a breathe taking view of the lake.
We then continue on through Rhayader and onto Elan Valley taking in the views of all the reservoirs before stopping and sending the DJI Mavic Pro drone up to give you all a view from the sky of the beautiful surroundings we were in.
When you arrive at the end of Elan Valley you then reach Devil's Bridge where we decide to stop at the cafe there and have a look around.
Closing out this episode is a drone flight over our caravan site and a look over Borth seafront.

A wry smile as you bravely called out the Welsh names of dams etc. Well I am Welsh but well done you have another fan.

People too often make Aberystwyth their point d'arrivee when in fact Borth is better as it has a sandy beach. Thanks for posting 😀 and if you see a big bloke on a black Jawa 640 , that's me!

The Elan. Valley, one of my all time favourite places. Been going there since I was 17 back in the early 80’s. It really is a magical place and your video has captured its majesty beautifully. The drone footage is astounding! There is another dam to see if you ever revisit that is the largest of the dams (Claerwen dam). When you passed Caban Goch dam the turning on the left that appears to be a bridge is actually a submerged dam which only comes in to view when the level of the reservoir is low. Turning left and.following that road would have taken you to Clarrwen dam. As always, thank you for making and sharing your brilliant journeys and tours! All the best mate 👍🏻

Hi, great video Steve. I love the Machynlleth mountain road, not for winter lol , there's a back road that goes all around the big dam and there's a fishing club where they rent boats if you like fishing. Ellan Valley is another lovely one, 20 min from home. If you cross the first nice bridge with arcs by the chapel in a few miles there's another big dam. Thanks, Gus

Hi Robert thanks for watching mate and in answer to your question I take my footage and audio from my camera and also have John's footage and audio from his camera so 2 memory cards then put both in my editing software (sony vegas 14). Then I sync the audio's together once and the conversation is clear from one anothers own camera's. Hope that makes sense.

Richard both John and myself have the Sena 20S intercoms which have their own microphones in our helmets to speak to each other, we also clip our camera microphones to the boom of the intercom mic so we both have TWO microphones in our helmets to be able to speak to each other and record that speech to our camera's recordings as well. hope that explains it mate.
