Default Awesome drive.

Went up to visit some friends near Hundred House last night as they are camping and asked me up for some supper.

It was 10:30 pm when I left as was quite dark. So I decided to use the old road via Builth Wells, Upper and Lower Chapel (B4520) back to Brecon then the A470, A4059 (Penderyn Road) via Aberdare then down to the A470 again back to Cardiff.

What an absolute hoot, dark, empty,with Pink Floyd Pulse as background music.

What a buzz and yes I kept my hat on and the roof was off all the way .

Used to come down the Hundred House road on my super moto from Cross Gates. A little narrow in places but a cracking road on a SM
