Dominic:
Worth a visit if you don't have to travel far.
The black sections really aren't that challenging, actually the whole thing feels fairly entry level. Not really a destination worth travelling distance to, but if you're local it's good for a workout and some practice or just a bit of fun. I don't really understand some parts of the course, there's tabletops and jumps that have almost no run up to get the required speed. Maybe I'm just getting old and slow.
What do you like?
Well marked, rides well all year round. I like the way it's laid out.
What could be improved?
Major bad point is it's very close to some very scutty areas. Expect chavs on Halfords bikes to follow you round and eye up your bike as they have nothing better to do.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
