Welcome, you're not far from Strata Florida! Just get a decent map and make sure you know where you're supposed to be driving.

Cool, cracking area that you live in, very close to Soar Mynydd as well, nice circular route for you!

Just need to get my lane machine back on the road and I can come out to play.

One thing you need to remember with Strata is that only one of the sets of ruts is the legal route, if in doubt it's usually the easiest line with the hard packed gravel or rock surface. Get OS Explorer 187 if you don't already have a copy, they even do a waterproof one which is ideal for Wales at this time of year!  :lol:

Obviously don't go alone or when the water's high, but I'm guessing you knew that already.
