Been up there again today for the first time in about 6 weeks and happy to see the old sections are open again.

The guys do a great job of maintaining the trails and its a fantastic ride no matter what the weather but riding in the sunshine today was marvellous.

Rode the puddle of doom for the very first time Hurrah.

    Yeah thats correct after the wooded section it used to be left and a fire road ride along to the top of the Chainslapper but now its straight over and through the woods and much more fun IMO.

    Absolutely lovely up there today my face has that warm stretched skin feeling that only sunshine can bring ( Or is that sunburn ??? ) :oops:

    Never been to Stile cop where the DH sections are but the guys work very hard to keep the trails maintained and to a good standard.

    The website also has accurate info relating to the trails, Its well worth the visit and if you do your homework and find out how to get to the Monkey trail it also adds an added extra RED/BLACK section just for the sheer hell of it.
