One or two...

Controls are:

Gladestry
Howey
Abergwesyn
Cwmann
Llansawel
Llangadog
Usk Reservoir
Pentre-bâch
Upper Chapel
Gladestry

The route's been checked by Steve Snook, so the scenery points are for real.

Thanks, I was being incredibly lazy . I hate trying to trace Welsh routes  with all those crazy place names.

Doesn't
Quote
2.7     49.7          At ABERGWESYN, R SP TREGARON     
                     Continue for 22Km to TREGARON
include a staircase?  And isn't the bit before it the 4 up-chevroned (not at the same time) Newbridge/Beulah rollercoaster?

If so, the answer is, I believe, 'Yes, it does have hills'.

Dang! I'll be stuck on a French autoroute (or even avoiding one at 1.?? euros to the £)

Pah, sounds a breeze.  Definately doable on fixed   ;D

Looking forward to those lovely ride reports - if it weren't for the Flamborough Head (needed for my Brevet 25000/5000) I'd have given this one a crack.
