Review for Antur Stiniog MTB Trail Centre

Ollie:

Such an awesome trail centre. Don't be put off by the uplift only aspect, although to try to ride it on a XC bike would be missing the point slightly. This is a DH venue. Its steep, rocky, fast, flowy, floaty, tough on bikes, and tough on riders. I've been lucky enough to ride here on a bluebird day, and it was without doubt the most progressive riding I've done. The blues are all rollable (although still tough), the reds make you think, and the blacks make you realise why you love this sport. I managed 12 uplifts in a day and 2 days later my body is still complaining. Well worth the drive (I mean come on, it is bloody miles from anywhere), and the ladies in the café do a mean bacon bap. Top marks all round, when the XC loop comes online it'll be busy so get there whilst you can.
