I can confirm that this "pot-hole ridden horror show" is indeed great fun on 32mm tyres. A really beautiful, traffic free ride surrounded by gorse, views into the valley, a few cows, etc. A little iron work to watch out for here and there but generally a perfectly rideable stretch.

This old concrete road is disused by motor vehicles - it's a bumpy, pot-hole ridden horror show on 23mm tyres but it'd be fun on a gravel or MTB.

A good way to get up to the A6 but surface is poor in places, take care!
