Track's been overwritten.

It's the dotted yellow one on the left. Starting just north of the
telephone symbol at the top, then anticlockwise round Gilwern Hill.

On the way back I stayed on the orange B road to Govilon.

Just realised: I passed the only thing that rhymes with orange.

I can see the Blorenge from my bedroom window!

BTW, I knew a kid called Gorringe in school, so there are two.

Haha. That road, and the other one just west of it with the black arrows
are seriously steep. Your orange road is on one of my favourite loops
into the Brecon Beacons NP.

How on earth did your GPS send you up there?
The orange B road is much more fun on the way up though
(that's the way I went up)
