Thanks for inviting me in to the forum.
I ride a trek rail 5 in and around Yorkshire and love it. I look forward to getting involved.

Great looking bikes, happy hooning and good luck.

Cheers, I’ve had it just over a year now and made quite a few upgrades.
It’s very close to where I want it. I don’t see me buying another bike for quite while I absolutely love it.

Wharncliffe will be close to you. Have you ridden it? If so, what did you think?

 

[Chris ledger]

Ive been in wharcliffe a couple of times both in the wet was r8 boggy you need to go in with people who know where to go some of it its bonkers lol its a drag back up to the top too

[E-Matt]

I was thinking the same. Need a local to find the trails and wait for some better weather.

Do you mean Wind Hill bike park? If so that looks awesome. What did you think of it?

Sounds good.
I really fancy bike park Wales this summer.

 

[Chris ledger]

Ive looked at llandegla i want to give that a go

 

[E-Matt]

It’s one of my favourites so far. Fast and flowing. Added bonus is lying up the initial 3m climb.
If you like the flow trails at Hamsterley you will love Llandegla. Well worth a visit.
