07:05 This dip has caught me out in the past on Ysbyty Ifan. Nice long lane.
0:08 "we don't like your sort being here!"
Is that first lane a BOAT? The one crossing the river Iwrch. Thank you.
@@greenhenryYT hi, not sure, but is legal, have ridden it for 30 plus years, met the farmer numerous times, and ridden with riders who will only ride lanes they are completely sure they are legal.
@benwrighttrailridingwales perfect! Thanks. I'll give it a go now. I know the lanes either side are on Trialwise but I'm new to green lanes on bikes. Thanks again.
Hi Ben, you find some great ride outs in Wales, love watching your videos, I would love to join you if I can, I have just starting green laning with a Gas Gas like yours, can I chat with you....I am a member of the TRF. Cheers. Karl.
Hi Karl, sorry but we are a private group of pensioners who are North Wales TRF members, we go out on Thursdays, as it suits us and is quieter than the usual Sunday runs. When we worked we did runs that were organised at the monthly meetings, these were open to all members on a first to put their names down up to a maximum of six. The monthly meetings are at the Parrot Inn, Drury Lane, Buckley on the first Wednesday of the month, contact is Neil at timpo@bikerider.com
Hey Looks great trail, doable on an adventure bike?
Depends on your ability and the bike, we are all pensioners and I’m the least able rider so make it look harder than it is. The second video the hill was really hard on enduro bikes, and the third video, well I wouldn’t like to ride along the edge of the lake on a big bike.
@@benwrighttrailridingwales I’ve done the first bit on the Ktm 990 on the council road but in reverse ie downhill and most of the tet routes in the area, just liked the look of some of these trails, will try and figure out where they are, hopefully getting a enduro soon for the winter months
Stand up and maintain a bit more speed. Nice trail..
At 68 with bad knees, bad back, overweight and unfit, I’m doing the best I can.
@@benwrighttrailridingwales Hats off to you sir. Im 64 and I find that the hardest part of riding is picking my bike up after an upset. The fact that your out there riding is fantastic. Fresh air, bikes and your pals, thats all a guy needs. ENJOY. Ray from Pittsburgh,Pa.
nice videos Ben, I was in same area and further over in Mach area later on the Saturday haha beautiful day.
Yaaa broo😊
Nice trail, use it or lose it.
It's hard keeping the bike upright when you get tired...some of my rides end up being an hour too long and keep dropping the bike.61yo and still going through
looks like a cracking lane that one Ben ive been there numerous times and still cant find it 🥲🥲
I think the hardest might be the ones in my video titled Hardcore Green Laning, or in my Green Lane Glory video, i dont know all the names but tregagle, pant glass, pump house, london road.. and one so narrow you can barely fit your bars and pegs inside a rut made of rock thats shoulder high! I really want to try heartbrake hill though, looks good, nice vid mate 👍
Is the Wayfarer open again?
@@richardnorris7302 no, but no repairs have taken place
Is it a dead-end lane? Looks enjoyable nonetheless.
@@robocombo it does carry on further across the moors but when it meets the parish boundary status changes, the farmer said you used to be able to go right over.
Great video thanks I've not done dol yet
👍
Great place to ride.
Hi there, I'm looking to get a camera as well. Which one do you use, it looks really good quality. Thanks.
Hi, I use a GoPro Hero 7 Black on a chin mount. Usually use 2 to 3 batteries for a days filming, up to 2 hrs raw footage.
@@benwrighttrailridingwales I see that the Hero 11's are going for £250. Hmmm, I'm a bit of a cheapskate, I'll have to mull it over. By the way, good videos. I always have a look out for new ones.
Nice! I live fairly close to Dolgellau and have only just got a CRF 300 Rally. Need to get out to do this one.
Class mate
I'm pretty sure whoever manages that forest wouldn't if you went off trail for bit. They would haha
Do you have a route or rough plan for this please? 😊
Sorry, no, I just follow the leader
Great stuff - Be great if you used a bit of the powerband.
is that a private lane Ben with the padlock
No, it’s legal, but the padlock is not legal, but to avoid confrontation we lock it again, not sure how we got the key though!
Good to see you back Ben need to get Bike fit now 👍.
Thanks, Meifod is not the easiest area for me to come back to, 2 months of lazing in the Spanish sun has done a lot of harm to my fitness!
All these negative comments FFS, the bkoke is having a go and enjoying himself, thats all that matters..... Keep it up mate, bollox to the haters..... bunch of 🔔🔚's
Riding across those waterlogged fields made me cringe in horror
Well,another reason for farmers to hate us . Stay on the lane ,if it's to deep stay at home. Sorry that's the way it is.😢
All the gear and no idea 😂
My brother lives in mold ! Hes a tw💩t Can you give him a little rev up outside his house?❤
Any chance of the route? Would love to ride this
Sorry, don’t have the ability to share routes, this is the start of whitestones however explore.osmaps.com/pin?lat=52.92361166950468&lon=-3.2359312691753814&zoom=16
The farmers need to replace a few posts? Great vid👍🏼
just got back myself, didn't quite realise how cold it was out. Still had snow on the ground in some places :) Looks good fun though mate.
Have a look at the Barkbuster Storm handguards. They sit over your other hand guards and keep the wind off your hands. I use them off road and they are not intrusive at all. A few of my friends have also bought them and all of us commented we wouldn't be without them now.
Thanks, I will have a look
Wanna rev it alot more
You really need to learn to breath ;) using diaphragm and floating Ribs. 4 strokes are not easy 😊
Getting old, diabetic, high blood pressure, overweight and camera mounted on my helmets chin. It’s a two stroke by the way.👍
was kidding about 4 strokes (stroke) All your problems are the reason you really need to learn to breath ;) Good rides ! @@benwrighttrailridingwales
Hi I've been watching ur videos with Jon mills. My friend and I go laning but would like to join you sometime. We both work so certain days are limited. But if you could let us know wen your around pentrefoelas again we'd like to come .I'm a novice so nothing too extreme ha
Hi, unfortunately we are a closed group. We are all members of the North Wales TRF and used to attend their meetings every month to organise our Sunday runs, with a first come basis with a limit of six riders. When John retired he started going out on a Thursday, I then continued to go out on Sundays until I too retired and rejoined Johns little bunch. NWTRF do regular novice runs, so join up and have some fun.
'Kinell you made hard work of that !!!😂
Age, bad knees, back and sheer terror!
Hi Ben,where is heartbreak Hill?
Drops down to Pontfadog, near Llangollen, explore.osmaps.com/pin?lat=52.945151179239815&lon=-3.1346658506447227&zoom=14.2
Thanks Ben👍
Lovely part of the world👍🏼
Whats the location of this lane Ben
South of Dolgellau, Bwlch coch, then goes south east to the main A487 road streetmap.co.uk/map?X=274412&Y=315827&A=Y&Z=115
@@benwrighttrailridingwales thank you 🙏
We were in Nant y moch today
Stand up, qnd keep a little momentum. You're making it harder than it needs to be
Got a problem with my knees, find it very painful to get into standing position, then can only stay stood up for a short time.
@@benwrighttrailridingwales shame, would make riding much less fatiguing and much easier. Just have to pick the moments it would help the most, and not over do the standing. Wonder if changing the footpegs and bars could help with your standing comfort.
School Lane looks as wet as ever!
Just before you get to the bridge at 16:16, there looks like a wider crossing for quads. Its clearer on satellite maps but looks 'green' on your video. Can you remember if it looked passable? Thanks
Yes it’s much better than the bridge, I should have taken it!
Ah. I saw you doubled back. Looked a great long ride out.
Lovely video again Ben. Nice selection of lanes. How often do you chaps ride?
We are all North Wales TRF members, and used to ride once or twice a month but are now retired so go out every week.
This is why I prefer to ride solo, no traffic jams or waiting around lol
And no one to help when things go wrong!
You really know all the great trails.
great job ive not been in ages
This look boss where about is this mate
Meifod is in mid Wales in Powys, riding area between Meifod and Lake Vyrnwy
