Lôn Las Cymru - The El Cymruno by Brompton | Part 2: North

The Lôn Las Cymru is long-distance cycling route through the heart Wales on traffic-free paths, cycleways and quiet roads. We refer to it as "El Cymruno". It travels through the most hilly region of Wales, from the Brecon Beacons to Snowdonia taking in some of the most stunning and diverse landscapes in Wales.
There are two versions of Lôn Las Cymru, you can either start at Cardif bay, or in Chepstow. We've done the latter, the Chepstow to Holyhead variant. This version of the original route is slightly longer than 240 miles, but we included some additional detours to see more.
We rented three-speed basic Bromptons from a Brompton Bike Hire locker in Bristol.
This short film covers the second half of the journey, following the cycling in Mid and North Wales from Llanidloes to South Stack Lighthouse near Holyhead.

Lovely! My brother and I cycled Lon Las Cymru in early June 2023, routing via Chepstow. It's a magical journey and now I want to go back and do it again!

Thank you so much for your great videos ! You both really encouraged me by them to think about a greater tour with my Brompton.

Fabulous video. Very inspiring. What a great idea to hire bikes. Would love to know what bags did you use on the bike? More videos please, you are making me want to get a Brompton.!

[@hungarianbromptoneers]

We used Brompton own pre-2016 T-bags made by Radical Design. This is a bag designed for touring with Brompton. Unfortunately these amazing bags has been discontinued. However there are some alternatives such as the Large Borough Roll Top Bag from the Brompton lineup, and Radical Design still offers some bigger bag for Bromptons.

Appreciate it! For filming this video, we exclusively used smartphones. But on this channel, you can find some other films shot with a compact camera (LX100)."

Thanks! Wales is amazing, and a magical place. We loved it so much, it led us to return in November. Check out this video about our boat and bike trip in November: kzbin.info/www/bejne/faqyeWRoh8Sgf68 And we are planning to visit Wales again this year.
