    Frankly, if you make it to a north Wales trail centre alive, you deserve a medal.
    Yeah, I heard the natives could be a bit dangerous as well.

    Beads? Oh come on. Fire, or some umbrellas.
    Shiny things though, now we're talking.

    More or less where I live to be honest, about 15 miles north, smack in the middle of the Surrey Hills, hundreds of miles of excellent singletrack, decent road riding and not in the middle of nowhere!

    Sounds nice, but I'd want a bigger house ;)

    North wales for me. Lived there for 18 months recently. I was 8miles away from the closest town and worked in some beautiful little villages. The way of life there was so different to what I was used to and I regret moving back to the rodent race.

    North west england? Dim diolch. Or something like that.

    Where I live, its as flat and boring as last weeks beer but I am near to 2 major cities, 2 international airports and an hours drive from N Wales, The Pennines, The Lakes, The Dales and The Peak District, if I am a bit happy with the throttle pedal I can be in 7 Stanes country in 2 hours.

    Scottish Highlands, Fort William area. Fantastic riding i bet, havent ridden there but theres plenty of moors and hills and brilliant whitewater paddling.
