Hi Guy's

Newbie here so please don't flame me if this is in the wrong section.

I am looking at arranging a 4 X $ Meet from a Vauxhall car club i am a member of and as i am the Regional organiser for south wales they have asked me to look into some possible routes.

Am i right in thinking that both the Gap Road and Carn Helen are now totally off limits to 4x4's?

if so can any of you guys help with an alternative lanes in the region worth a visit.

thanks

the lower end of sarn is open from 1st june till 1st september, thats the pic i seen of the sign.

and the next section is closed and then from ystrafelta to brecon i think is open all year

you got the rocky road which is open all year, thats what r.c.t said, its approx 3 miles i think it goes from abernant over mountain to heolgerig, but merthyr side is tarmac,
dont think its the best lane but its a lane.


anyway welcome to the club eddy

loads of lanes needing to be categorised in the next few weeks , i need a few trucks that are capeable and with a winch to do a few on the west coast as they have not been used in a while and are a bit tough on trucks .
