I raced a Dragon Downhill at Mynydd du blummin years ago now. It was a great track, properly hard and steep but I've not been back since.

Does anyone ride it anymore? Is there any track left TO ride?

Otherwise, is there owt else there like some routes or can you ride to the top of the dh track?

Any local knowledge would be great. Thinking of visiting there day before Gethin.

Used to go there alot as it was one of my favourite tracks. Started to get logged though. The last time I went it was all completely ruined from the top to the road gap. The pushing for the sections below that don't really give great value for push time so haven't been there since, bit of a shame I think.

Sorry that doesnt help much but you'd do best to avoid the place.

Thanks adamhicks, sounds like the dh track may be no more sadly. Was there any good xc loops up there?

We did an orienteering event there on the tandem a few weeks ago. More than enough to keep us amused for three hours.
