Hi
What nice downhill tracks are there around the Cardiff/Cwmcarn area?
Preferably with a road leading to the top (or nearby)
I'm getting a heavy-ish bike built up soon and fancy trying out some new local runs.
Obviously I'll be taking it to Cwmcarn DH (when the ice has gone)
Ta

Originally from Cardiff/Cwmcarn but just moved back here from Bristol, wondering if there are any new tracks around here

Carpe, I think I did my very best mince/bimble at that point, will be popping back when it's dried out a bit and giving it another go, which also gives me time to grow a bigger set of balls!! The climb up to it is a good one as well, especially when it's slushy and icy.

The climb is good in the dry,normally 30 - 40 mins, and there's some great tracks as well as the farside. Took us over hour pushing up there last week ๐Ÿ™
