Totally iconic Welsh climb used in Tour of Britain so many times. I've ridden this 3 times closed rode. Fantastic!! However the road is really busy and not well sighted. I have commuted up this hill a couple of times but wouldn't recommend it. There's a much nicer route up from Van Road if you want to avoid the traffic. And the Wenallt into your loop for a brutal workout.
