Heading down to N Wales next Saturday afternoon, thought about stopping at Llandegla for a blast on the way. The only thing putting me off is that I probably won’t be there before 3pm, and the place seems to shut with a locked gate at 6pm, which seems a bit tight. Don’t want to piss off locals/local businesses by parking badly just outside the centre.

How long for an average lap of Red/black – would it be better to park at the end of the Offa’s Dyke BW and ride in from there?

You’ll be fine, 1hr 15 mins riding time at a good pace. Leisurely pace still under 2hrs. If you’re struggling for time cut out the b line and you’ll save 15 mins

Just park at the bottom of the lane.No restrictions at all then. 😉

or worlds end. Get the added fun of the boards over offas dyke, nice downhill singltrack to finish.

Cheers. Sounds good. Didn’t want to end up kipping in the car there overnight.
