Last petrol and cake stop at Beulah - where I discovered my phone was now in Harlech after being found on a mountain top by a lovely walker who is posting it back to me (might keep quiet about being a trail rider for now though!)

Then a quick blast home after one of the best (and longest, at 299.3 miles!) trail rides ever
