The Gorlech

I rode the Gorlech on my own one damp September morning. Enjoyed the whole loop but took it fairly easy as there is no phone signal if you cock it up. Tough first climb that seems to go on forever. Loved the first descents, I avoided the optional jump lines but they looked good. Second climb was a killer with tons of midges bothering me. Saw some RAF jets buzzing around the valleys below which was cool. The final descent was cool bar the state of the trail in places, multiple lines have developed and some are not so good...great place to ride, will be back with Mates to ride the lot for a weekend.

What do you like?

Remote forest riding. Good trails with fast descents.

What could be improved?

No facilities at the Gorlech car park when I was there September 2014 plus the pub was shut. No phone signal (maybe not a bad thing!) if your riding on your own

Would you recommend?

Yes
