    There's a full section/thread all about the trail here:

    It's ok when wet just a bit slippier, and yes it's worth doing and a hardtail will be just fine.

    Cheers bungalistic for the link,
    Just read onyou tube that the south loop is closed for maintenance, Do you know when its likely to reopen? and can you link the north and south loop into one?

    Thanks

    The south is fully open again. Watch out for sharp stones though- one worked its way through my tyres on Wedbesday night- about 1/2" long and very pointy!
