    My mate and I went there last spring/summer and it was £4 each.

    Unless you are into big air jumps on a straight downhill run or round a small 4X-type track, I would not bother. The XC 'trail' was about 2/3 mile long and a total bog. The drainage is not existent except that the water runs down the hill to the XC trail. Great.

    The two of us were the only ones there to even consider the strange concept or actually riding UP a hill (probably two of only 3-4 guys over 21!), everyone else was going kamikaze down stuff I would not even consider unless I was looking for a very public suicide. All Spesh Big Hits and similar and full-face helmets.

    Summary: NOT for me, or XC/trail riders. If you are going that way anyway, go to Bedgebury a little further down the A21. It's got its faults but is 200% better than PORC for all but the aforementioned gravity stuff.

    Unless PORC has been redesigned since last year?
