Some of you may be familiar with Epynt others not, but its quite a famous place in the Rally world as well as for bikes, bit of a cheat for me as the visitor centre itself is only about 50 miles from my front door but I had forgot how nice a ride it is from Brecon up and over through the ranges which form part of SATA (Sennybridge Army Training Area) and down to the main road which leads to Llandovery.
What was really surprising was I hardly passed another bike until I was down onto the fairly boring in comparison A483, but then it is ideally suited to the likes of the Tiger, though Ive ridden it plenty times in past myself on standard road fare.
Just a few pics for a taster

I love this old Norton spotted at the cafe in Llandovery, not a concourse never ridden example but a properly used and abused beauty, I half expected to see Che Guevara come out and get on :lol:

Hell no!
You just stay in cabins... buy new clothes every day. And eat at restaurants for every meal.
GPS is really not necessary. Usually the woman you wake up next to has a pretty good idea how to get around the immediate area :lol:

Yup, they went into battle to save the world like that, some can't go to the shops without an MP3 :roll: :whistling:
Reminds me of Alexis Sayle once saying about yummy mummys in their Chelsea Tractors "Of course, 4 wheel drive is simply essential for negotiating the carpark curbs at Tescos..."
