Finally, at last, I've done it.

The Tregaron to Abergwesyn Mountain Road and what a road. Made famous in my mind by being one of the roads that sorted the men from the boys in the Motoring News Rally Championship.

Today the mountain was a bit misty and the road quite wet and mucky in places but still spectacular. Not a road to use if you like to wrap up your car in cotton wool. Single track the surface varies between fairly good to quite bumpy in places but no major potholes at least in the middle of the road.

One major drawback in a Morgan is that when you go over a brow the bonnet obscures the view so it pays to say a little prayer that nothing is coming the other way or that the road doesn't suddenly turn leaving a rock face or shear drop in front of you

Started in LLanfair Caerinion then to Tregaron via Machynlleth and Devils Bridge.

A very late breakfast at the River Bank Cafe to build up strength for the Mountain road and then over the top to Abergwesyn and on to Beulah.

Back via the Llandrindod Wells to Newtown Road (a superb twistyish A road)

150 miles in all and a very dirty 4/4 to clean.

Mog season has arrived.
