Organiser's Description

Set in beautiful North Pembrokeshire, the Preseli Angel provides quiet, fast roads, varied terrain and spectacular coastal and mountain scenery. Two fantastic, but eminently do-able, routes - 40 miles and 78 miles - both with the same beginning that includes fast roads, a magnificent climb of the Preseli Mountains and super-fast descents. The longer route takes you to the edge of the Preseli Mountain range, through more fantastic scenery before returning to the foot of the magnificent Carn Ingli for a brutal last climb - the infamous Bessie's -before dropping back down to Newport. Both distances feature downhill finishing runs that will challenge you as much as the uphills!
