Educate me please. I was last there 16 years ago on a fully rigid Univega. I don’t remember it being much cop!
Since then I’ve seen a few Enduros advertised in there, plus the ProRideGuides guys running skills courses.
I had never considered going back, but I’m in the process of ballsing-up a week off for riding and getting desperate. I was supposed to be in South Wales but had to dash back up to Yorkshire – trying to fit some “days” in instead.
Problem tomorrow is the weather forecast – miserable in the Dales, probably miserable in the lakes by late morning. North Wales raining all day. Hebden, Bowland etc. all wet.
I don’t mind a wet ride, but if I’m missing something good that is dry then it seems a pity. So what is there? On a scale of 1 to 5
1. 3000ft alpine descents and a chairlift? (I joke)
2. Decent downward pointing trails with an easy winch to the top.
3. Ups that are worth the downs?
4. Rare hidden gems, but you have to work hard for them
5. Dalby (Gravity defying up to down ratio)
Or basically, how do I get the most from a day there? Cheers
