consolation prize

After the fun we had on natural Welsh trails we were a little pissed off that things hadn't gone to plan so, while the rain hadn't shown up some bright spark suggested we drive to the Marin trail near Betws-y-coed and mess about on the final descents. Obviously we'd need to climb up first to get to them. As we unpacked the van the rain caught up with us and we climbed through worsening weather. My tyres felt much better on this more rocky terrain and the descents were great fun. It was a relief to get back to the van though and all thoughts of another lap were forgotten
