“it’s Sunday morning; let’s ride up the mountain on our road illegal bikes and trash the place, also illegally. It’s not as if the police will try to stop us”.
These two off-roaders came out of the Mountain Air car park and headed off in the direction of Pontypool. Note, they have no number plates and no lights, so are street illegal and therefore uninsured for road use.
Vehicle #1. This unassuming black Range Rover is the one that started it all. Back in late 1995, I was none too happy to have my mom's old car foisted on me. That changed the first time I followed some friends back behind the nearby Sam's Club and first experienced "offroading". Looking back a decade later, it was pretty lame, but I was hooked.
Over the next several months, the Rover and I became great buds, but two pretty severe accidents tweaked the frames and the problems just began appearing left and right, so in the summer of 1996 my parents decided to replace the Range Rover with what, to me, was the coolest vehicle on the planet.
Deep rutting caused by illegal off-road motorcycling. This track, carved out by bikers, leads to the path which goes up to the top of the mountain and the Blaen Bran reentrant rim. There is a similar “track” further on. Nearer the Mountain Air car park, where the main track branches off, there is a brand new gate (see adjacent image) to deter off-road motorcyclists?!?!
