    • @homeandtravel7235
      @homeandtravel7235 Місяць тому

      Sorry to hear that, could be a bearing in the motor or a loose or damaged connection but i am no expert. The only issue i have had with mine is the motor turning itself off several times for no reason which stopped after i slammed the front wheel down after passing through one of those narrow gates. Check this video out on troubleshooting hopefully it helps : ua-cam.com/video/WJ95ZmqEsss/v-deo.html

    Tredegar River? Tredegar Valley? Where are you from? It's the Sirhowy River. You're in the Sirhowy Valley. Did you purposely avoid NCN Route 467 from Georgetown to Puchin and Holly Bush to Blackwood?

      Hi and thanks for the comments, i could not think off hand what the valley and river are called and was thinking it is the valley that comes down from Tredegar like the Rhymney valley comes down from Rhymney. I was not aware that there are more bits of the cycle route that close to Tredegar and will check it out next time i go that way.

      Hi thanks for watching and for the comments, i see the gate that you are referring to and did think about trying to go through that way but was not sure if you can get through there or if it is another dead end that comes out at a farm. I have tried a few of the side roads after that roundabout and there are farms down the valley. When i go that way again i will give it a go thanks.

    At 5:32 if you went left down the banking bit before the allotments it's a small off road trail that follows the river and leads you round the back of norgine and comes out where they hold the bootsale on the main road ,Also you could have crossed the main road in tir-y-berth by the old fishshop went up under the tunnel and up the black path into cefn hengoed ,Dropped down into pottery lane onto the new cycle track and rejoined ncn47 at 16:38 on the right in Video this would have skipped the tir-y-berth main road section happy ridding 👍
