Heading over there at the start of March, just had a look at the website and there are various trails and what seems to be a couple of starting points. It will be myself and laddo, after about 10-15 miles of the good stuff, fast descents and jumps etc. We are riding bpw the day before so he'll no doubt be a bit weary (and me) hence the 15 ish mile limit, tech wise as an example he easily rides the black at llandegella .

Whytes, techy climb to the top, swoopy jumpy decent. Start and finish at the cafe. It's a classic favorite. But to be fair, they are all good fun.

Pick the one you want by distance and proximity to the cafe ๐Ÿ™‚

The Wall has those two new black descents. I have yet to actually try them out, they look quite fun though.

Where are the new black descents on The Wall? Can't find anything about them online.

One is half way along graveyard, the other starts at top of zig zags. I think the one at zig zags is the same as the one I raced at ukge 2015?

Have ridden the black descent that starts at top of Zig Zags. Real good fun, quite steep and technical. Loses all of your elevation dead fast though. I think Bull is right, it's origins are as a UKGE stage a few years back.
