Regulars I’m sure will by now have noticed the huge amount of photos we managed to squeeze onto Flickr of our recent MTB trip to Afan and Glyncorrwg in South Wales.

A selection of my favourites are here, first a picture of me on the berms above the Whites Level climb. I like this mainly because usually I end up taking the pictures, so it’s a rare shot of me in action and not looking too out of shape!

Next, an artful shot from Colin of the start of Grand Canyon on the Skyline Trail. Apart from the boulder field merriment, the rest of the trail was smooth flowing and great fun.

Finally, another mood shot of Dave P’s bike above Llyn Fach on the Riding High trail on Skyline which I’m rather proud of.

All our Afan 2008 MTB pictures can be viewed on Flickr. There might even be a picture of a Welsh family taking their cat for a walk somewhere!
