Cheers 118 few lads were over your way last week for the first time and enjoyed the trail having never ridden it before, unfortunately I had to work.

Really? Where did they go?! Off piste, is my guess as the FC stuff around here, is somewhat 'pedestrian'... however at our age, a ride, is a ride..

Hi 118 not sure exactly where they rode over there but they all said it was nice and flowy and would definitely go again cafe was open which was a bonus

Sounds like they followed the beater trail or maybe a mix of both.... an open cafe is always good..

118 will tell you about the secret stuff the other side of the road, when he knows you better....

The first rule about BCP, is, we don't talk about BCP.....

Yikes! Is it flatter than pancake, by chance, or is it pure Norfolk gnar?

 

[Jay355]

Flat as a pancake but the Red Route has been altered and some extra stones have been installed, Downhill off some mole hills and an ice cream is the highlight of the day

An ice cream will always be a highlight. I'm particularly enjoying, unicorn cornetto's this week.
