Great trail

Ridden the Revelation trail and one of the black ones on 22 Sep. My first time and have to say that builders did a great job! Few points below:

What do you like?

- it's a tough trail, 9km took me 1.5 hrs to finish (it's a good thing, don't mind such trails!) I was not rushing and was bit tired after doing Long Mynd just before. - the initial section followed by the switchback climb is top, really enjoyed that - mid section is OK, but again hard work, not much flow or reward for the hard work:) - enjoyed last third again, some good sections and steep slopes to negotiate. Parking is small, but wasn't busy at the time of my visit. No facilities, which I don't mind

What could be improved?

- Black trails not easy to find (was looking for them after the first climb, but the signs are not clear) - There are a loads of unmarked trails, which is bit confusing sometimes - it would be great to have a section or part of a trail, which would be even bit more technical (a highlight section or "signature" feature which would make the rider remember it, e.g. a drop or something similar)

Would you recommend?

*Yes*

Great riding worth the visit

Very good place to ride, it’s my local and have been riding there for the last 12 years so have seen it change. There is something there for everyone it a real natural beast

What do you like?

Mixture of technical trails that have varying grades. Signage very clear and good. Some awsome off piste stuff. Short red loop so no need for facilities at all

What could be improved?

Approach road can be a pain

Would you recommend?

*Yes*

Eastridge is a hidden gem. There's a good selection of old school downhill trails which are easily rideable on a modern full susser but can still be really challenging. The red route is also a blast, with optional extras if you know your way around, but maybe not enough on it's own to warrant a big drive down. There are also a few hidden tracks which are steep as you like and awesome fun! Once you learn where the fire roads go you can ride back up to the top of the DH tracks in about 10 - 20 mins and have another rip! Would not recommend to someone who is not used to really rough terrain and sketchy riding and in the wet it is a different beast. The Eastridge trail partnership keep the trails in tip top condition and are all volunteers, hats off to you lads and lasses. You'll either love it or you'll hate it!

What do you like?

Great selection of trails, always finding new stuff to ride. Hero Dirt.

What could be improved?

Very slippery in the wet! Car park can get crowded. Not for the faint hearted!!

Eastridge

A great place to go if you are in the area (I was on my way back from Hopton Woods). A small car park leads to a well marked red trail and lots of off piste trails. The red trail is short but quite technical and flows really well for a short trail. As mentioned above I don't think its worth a specific journey but if you find yourself in the area with your bike a an hour or so its certainly worth a diversion. Small car park and that's it so go prepared.

What do you like?

Very quiet

What could be improved?

no facilities

Would you recommend?

*Yes*
