Hello,

Reading Mountain Biking UK while in Wales I noticed that Dalby has a new waymarked 5KM XC Trail. Any ideas where it starts? Going on Sat so would be good to try something new there.

Cheers
Simon

    My guess is that it's the world cup course, which has some new parts & uses some of the existing trails there already.

    There is supposed to be a change to some of the red route after dixons hollow, a switchback descent might be modified into a climb & a new descent added in it's place

    http://www.singletraction.org.uk/index.php are the trailbuilders who will be able to give info (or correct what I've heard in my post above)

    That little climb is impossible for me, I was impressed I managed to cycle down it.
    I would be amazed to see anyone clear it, too steep, i fallo f the back of my bike.
    Why would I care about 150g of bike weight, I just ate 400g of cookies while reading this?
