    👉New Norway trip, you can find the playlist here • Norway An Epic Motorcy...
    Join us as we embark on a beautiful ride through The Gospel Pass in Wales, a hidden gem recommended for a perfect day out on a motorcycle. Fortunately this road is not on the UK's top 10 most dangerous roads list and was a fantastic winding lane up to the summit.
    What is The Gospel Pass?
    The Gospel Pass (Welsh: Bwlch yr Efengyl) is the highest road pass in Wales, standing at 1,801 feet (549 meters) above sea level. Nestled at the head of the Vale of Ewyas in the Black Mountains of southeast Wales, this scenic route stretches approximately 22 miles. The name is believed to originate from the 12th century when Crusaders passed through, preaching and fundraising.
    Our Journey
    We set off on an epic 363-mile adventure to answer the burning question: Should you ride The Gospel Pass? The short answer is a resounding yes! While not overly technical, the road is narrow and presents some challenges, including gravel, potholes, and bicycles.
    Continuing into the breathtaking Brecon Beacons, we encountered an unexpected surprise, stay tuned for another video featuring this part of our journey!

    The "interesting construction" was the site of a landslip a few years ago. The road between Llanthony Priory and Capel y Ffin was officially closed for a couple of years, but passable over a temporary repair.

      Hi, Thanks for watching and hope you subscribed. I was using the Garmin Zumo XT satnav which has all the speed cameras on. If you go to the Gospel pass look up Devils staircase its a great ride 👍
