I opened the first mountain bike hire business in the Brecon Beacons National Park in 1995. Since then my business, Wales Outdoors, has grown and morphed and is now the most active and most popular guided walks and adventure travel provider in Wales.

Andy has been a volunteer co-ordinator, guided walks programme organiser and part time central area warden for the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority, chair of Brecon Beacons Tourism, a Duke of Edinburghs area co-ordinator, a Princes Trust social inclusion manager, the catalyst for the Brecon Beacons National Park Environment Charter and a key motivator for the inception of the outdoor activity peer group, SWOAPG.

Join Me! for a walk or two :)

A forty mile walk over two days (Monday and Tuesday). Fine weather Monday, grey and wintery Tuesday. Good to be back out and 'achieving' some walking challenges :)

I'm writing about the experience and will link to this group when done :)

One question though sparked by spotting the ongoing and numerous construction sites... Throughout lockdowns 1 and 2 we have not been able to walk in the hills and as I've been saying from day one, and just a few days ago SAGE finally confirmed, there is no danger from covid in being outdoors, BUT, throughout most of both lockdowns the construction industry has been business as usual.

HOW can that be 'protecting the NHS?'

I have a sneaky feeling that the 'great and the good', always a statement that really needs inversion, have their fingers in developers pies. Just a thought.

This is why we can't go walking at the mo:

Mark Drakeford said: "The reason why at this point we are not allowing people to travel in their car to exercise is because you will remember the scenes we saw not that long ago of what happens at beauty spots when people think that option is open to them. We get large congregations of people in relatively confined spaces with all of the risks which that brings."

SAGE say 'no Covid outbreak anywhere in the world has been traced back to a beach' and I think we can fairly infer the same applies to mountains...

What? No science. No data. No logic. No understanding of the desperation of very many people.

Basically it's you've been naughty and so we'll punish you for a little longer... And in fact it's let's corral everyone into the same local parks, because that's the only enclosed outdoor space I can conceive of.

I refer you to my previous comment on todays announcement.
