I think Martin is generally happy that more of the surfacing hasn&#39;t failed so badly. Teething problems I think.</p> <p>On a plus note there should be another couple of hundred yards of volunteer trail open in a couple of weeks, just letting it bed in at the moment. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/gisburn-forest-is-open/page/10#post-643476 Wed, 02 Sep 2009 08:45:43 +0000 el_diablo 643476@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Went up last night, it&#39;s very cut up in places particular the tree covered areas that haven&#39;t been surfaced with rock. In fact it&#39;s probably up to 6 inches deep in gloopy mud in places. Even the old bits that have been there years are now in a poor state due to the added volume of riders.</p> <p>It was still bloody good fun though, first time I&#39;d ridden the new sections in the dark! </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/gisburn-forest-is-open/page/10#post-643440 Wed, 02 Sep 2009 08:34:40 +0000 robgarrioch 643440@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Hoping to head there this Friday, for the 2nd time - looking forward to it, just hope it&#39;ll stand up to the monsoon conditions that are (apparently) fast approaching. Might make for a decent-cautious ride, but thought the big dipper was slidy 5 weeks ago; ride to the conditions, I suppose. Be good to have the signs correct my original route (+ take 20 mins off circuit time!) </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/gisburn-forest-is-open/page/10#post-642703 Tue, 01 Sep 2009 20:35:53 +0000 Beveled Edge 642703@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Rode it on sunday and was highly impressed, much better with propper way marking <img src="http://singletrackworld.com/forum/my-plugins/bbcode-buttons/default/icon_biggrin.gif" title=":D" class="bb_smilies" alt=""/> <br /> Almost lost it on the slimy big dipper jobby, and thought the slab was great <img src="http://singletrackworld.com/forum/my-plugins/bbcode-buttons/default/icon_biggrin.gif" title=":D" class="bb_smilies" alt=""/> </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/gisburn-forest-is-open/page/10#post-623123 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 10:29:21 +0000 clarkpm4242 623123@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Went round again yesterday and the new (and old) circular red signage seems reasonably foolproof to get you round.</p> <p>Cheers<br /> Paul </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/gisburn-forest-is-open/page/10#post-615322 Fri, 21 Aug 2009 15:44:59 +0000 domino 615322@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Sorry for the bump (post above) - don&#39;t suppose anyone found mrdominos glasses in the car park ? </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/gisburn-forest-is-open/page/10#post-611450 Thu, 20 Aug 2009 11:38:05 +0000 domino 611450@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Well done to the trailbuilders. Was very impressed with Gisburn last night. I am not ashamed to say I missed out on some sections (don&#39;t want to damage myself before my hols, and yes I am that clumsy). But I will be back to ride the bits I missed again.</p> <p>Hello to Broken_Collarbones - was nice to meet you.</p> <p>If anyone finds some DHB glasses in the car park, black with blue-grey lenses, they are mrdominos. Can you drop me an email if you find them. </p> <p>Thanks </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/gisburn-forest-is-open/page/10#post-601521 Sun, 16 Aug 2009 22:23:56 +0000 B.A.Nana 601521@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Update on the signage:<br /> As said above, the posts are in. The FC guy (Martin Colledge) has now rearranged the old red circular MTB directional markers, they should now direct you round the new stuff the correct way. The proper new slot-in markers won&#39;t be in place for another few weeks or a month. Apparently Martin is waiting on FC HQ to renew some grading issues and trail head info wording before he can finish the signage, but if you follow the circular red route markers, you should get to ride everything and shouldn&#39;t get lost. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/gisburn-forest-is-open/page/10#post-591505 Wed, 12 Aug 2009 13:37:07 +0000 johni 591505@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>They weren&#39;t up on Sunday (way markers) although the posts are.
