Hi all, Does anybody know if Penshurst (PORC) is still open and worth riding?

Cheers

    Yes it is still open. I haven't actually ridden there yet, but went just to look at it. Looks quite good. They've got 4x, Jump, DH, XC i think.

    I am going soon, I'll let you know how it is unless you are there before I am. 8)
  • I had heard they were shutting down due to kids breaking in and riding at night? I hope it is still open, I have great memories of that place and am hoping to spend most of my summer up there!

    I thought they had shut down, so I emailed the guy and he said they are still open 7 days a week
  • That's great news!!! Do you know how much it is to ride these days?

    Can't remember the exact prices but it was different for different age groups - but between £2.50 and £7.50 i think??
  • Thats nice and reasonably priced then! I'll have to have a look and try get down there in the not to distant future! :D

  • I mostly ride XC so a the moment I've just got a £300 Saracen but I'm hoping to order the new Orange Crush this week (as long as I can convince the pregnant wife)... What about youself?

    Cool, I really like the Crushes - (get it) :)

    And I ride everything really - XC, street, light DH, North-Shore Freeride etc.
    And I have a 95 % upgraded Avalanche :D
