Hello went to CYB today to check out the new bits and have a good look at the Adam and Eve section. I couldn't find it! The shop said it was on the Dragons Tail trail but I definately didn't ride it! We did take the short cut by the cafe half way round. Did we miss it by doing that?

It's part of the mbr and the beast fairly near the beginning after the first climb IIRC.
Shame you missed it 'cos it's a good'un!

if that's the jumpy bit i recon as nice as it is to ride it's out of place at C-y-B as it doesn't look even slightly natural

Whyte1 it is pretty out of context based of the section before and after it, I prefered the old bit which is now a foot path.

Still fun though ๐Ÿ™‚

What were condition like at coed today ?

Its the 2nd section after the first climb on MBR trail.
Yes, it doesnt fit in at all with the local terrain/rock, but it is good fun if you dont ride it often.

They also did the track on the blue, minor trail

Does that replace the really rocky one with the sharp hairpin downhills that you do after the climb? It used to lead down to a 3 way fire road junction.

No, that section is still there gee. A+E is straight after that.

Oh I know the bit - leads down to the bridge? That was a bit dull.

Not on the trail but a fair bit higher up. It was mainly wet!
