Red trails I suppose but its more the distance you are comfortable with.My Website - Trail Centre info for the UK: MTB Trail Time0

the trail grading in England and Wales is a joke-Scotland and europe black often means black
llandegla has a black section which i could probably ride on my BMX
just ride the trail centres-they aint hard, get used to them and you'l do just fineDont look at it-ride it! they are tools not f*cking ornaments

if you intend to ride through the winter and are nw to MTB, then watch out... seemingly innocent trails can have a nasty way of rearing up and taking a chunk out of your ass! llandegla black will hurt you if youre cocky as will llandegla blue!
I'm assuming you already have a decent level of bike fitness, but MTB fitness and road fitness are not the same thing. endurance and tech for what you want.0
