First Time Trailer
For a first time trailer, the red was a great entry to trails, surprisingly, for something with a fast technical rating - even if it was in the dark!
Maybe I wasn't as incompetent as I expected!
What could be improved?
the climb back up the fire road
Would you recommend?
*Yes*

What do you like?
Lots of different style trails around the woods. Lots if man made trails and also loads of natural trails to just explore on. Some great table tops to jump and a fantastic hip just up from a place we call tge drift pit.
What could be improved?
Could definitely do with some toilets.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*

^gramps:
biggest little woods in the world
theres a few good squads that regularly ride the woods mid week
Thursday evening is tumblers night rides find em on facebook
and of course the longest serving trail crew The chopwell Mafia https://www.chopwelltrailbuilders.com
What do you like?
great system of natural trails deverloped over 3o years by the local guru's. Find em or ask a local and you wont be disappointed
two main F.c supported trails
red Powerline fast twisty bermy goodness with a few small drops and jumps for those who do ,
Black trail. "Article50" is marked black ,not because it's downhill or hard to ride but because it's unsurfaced and technical and designed to mimic natural loamy trails preferred by the secret builders who inhabit the woods. and it's plenty fun both in the dry and sliptastic in the wet .
if its slop your after switch on your strava and follow the lines .
What could be improved?
gets a few non helmeted nut jobs from the local villages
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
