As a wannabee fruit eater, which is better, Apples or Oranges?
Oranges if i had to choose but i much prefer bananas.

Whoever would do such a thing ?
Many people slagging trail centers sound like they would stand in front of a mirror in their lycra shorts kissing their biceps, before proclaiming to their reflection "Looking good!". Trail centers are responsible for bringing many people (myself included) into mountain biking who may otherwise overlook the sport. Moving into it recently from climbing and walking and am hooked! I am perfectly capable of reading a map and have been on several routes in the hills. There is enjoyment in trail centers and the mountains. Wild areas do give a sense on exploration and peace, however places like Glentress give a great adrenalin rush, atmosphere and the chance to chat to like minded individuals. I am just glad I don't see your sort bringing down the friendly atmosphere at Glentress.

Have you been peeking through my curtains. 😳

Sounds like an advert for weatherspoons.
I saw a trail centre punch a child in the face.
I'm lucky to live in the South Lakes, close to a fair amount of 'natural trails', I've being riding since around 93', but every now and then find someting new I've not ridden before.
Every now and then I ride a trial centre, mainly because I've not found a natural equivilant to 'make or break' and the like.
Its all riding.
Its all good.
(apart from maybe the NFT 😉 )
