Quick fun blast.

What do you like?
It's not the longest or most difficult riding you'll do if you're a seasoned mtber. But it has potential to put a huge grin on your face. With no significant hills it's very pedally, that's not a bad thing. You'll get out what you put in.
Spin those cranks up to warp factor 9 and you'll enjoy the flowey kitchener trail as it twist it's way through the forest. Drains really well so it's possible to ride it all year round. A below par downhill line and a progressive jump area are just off the main trail. Miles of alternative tracks off the kitchener trail mean you could spend hours connecting your route together. A great place for newcomers to improve trail riding skills. Excellent facilities cafe/bike hire.
What could be improved?
Only 13km main trail. Expensive parking on bank holidays.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*

^Tobin500:
First timer
Was recommended this route by other mtb'ers who have been visiting sherwood pines for years. Good recommendation.
What do you like?
Recently stayed at Center Parcs Sherwood Forest and decided to give Sherwood Pines a go for the first time wiht my brother. Have a 'Scott Genius 750' and although I've taken it off road, I hadn't yet had the chance to take it on a good mtb run due to priorities. I will say it was a good, just shy of a couple hours of fun. Ran the Kitchener and I would say as a beginner, I did just fine. Gave it what I could but feel next time I'll take it even faster.
What could be improved?
Nothing really bad to say, but maybe that's due to it being my first time running the route.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*

^Ryan:
Regular attendee
I live 5mins away from pines so go every weekend. However I consider it a training centre to build stamina and test new equipment.
They've made all trails the same base material as green route so that shows how easy they've made it. I prefer before they over maintained it the days of ruts, exposed tree roots and ending the day head to toe in mud.
What do you like?
Well maintened tracks however ... to be continued
Cafe and pines cycle centre is always helpful and can repair your bike there and then.
What could be improved?
Trails are too easy - maintained too well (limestone paths)
Expensive car parking (I have a discovery pass but £6 all day for non pass users is expensive)
Would you recommend?
*No*

^Gavin Ripley:
kitchener Trail well worth couple of laps thro in dh line.
We went to the Italian restaurant behind mc donalds 10 quid average for quality main course and you can see bike well worth a visit.
What do you like?
Its a really easy trail young children would be able to ride all the trail safely its really good condition trails fast and has good flow love all the signs like western front ect.
What could be improved?
£6 pounds for all day parking £4 for 2 hours is extremely steep especially if you have travelled a good distance to come.The café expect you to leave your bike out of eye view as most mountain bikes are 3 or 4 grand doubt many would do that.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
