This is a kinda ‘what bike for […]’ question, but more broadly, what is the Haldon Challenge Trail actually like for an ok fitness, but otherwise non-technical rider ?
I’m assuming (?) a fairly consistent surface, no drop-offs / steep transitions / rock gardens and the like … as I think my mum (who’s in her 70’s) might struggle a bit covering ground that’s too gnarr, and given that she’s keen to ride there it’d be a shame if it’s not really too suitable. That said, she’s fine with the occasional bit of pushing/walking tho’ if that gets her through something she isn’t confident to ride through.
She rides a liv/Giant Sedona, so the bike’ll be ok (just not sure about her).
