Erik:
Hidden Gem
I will definitely be going back often.
What do you like?
Decent berms and speed on the Black and I managed to lose the track half way round, the Orange took me by surprise as after about 4 seconds I was airborne which made me laugh quite a bit and you can get some decent little jumps in quite easily. The red run has some good fast bits, some tight turns. Can be sketchy when wet which all adds to the fun. I met 3 other lads up there and they seemed friendly enough which is always nice when you're out alone.
What could be improved?
Not sure if it is a bad point but I struggled to get any traction on some parts - maybe I had too much pressure in my back tyre - will have to go back and see. Not much variation in surface and there is nothing too technical as its mainly compacted ground. There is one slope [not long enough to call a climb] which is steep for an old fella like me and I missed the blaze as I was staring at my front wheel - I had to walk back down to see where I should be going.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
