Dunno if I'd go that far but I really enjoyed it, esp the downhill on the south loop. Great fun.

Went to see my brother in grasmere last week and we went there. 180mm freeride bike was a bit too much to make the climbing fun, but I thought the descent was great. You can keep loads of speed through the berms. I thought it was great fun, pretty muddy but if anything that made it a bit less predictable.

I admit that I went when the place was frozen SOLID and rammed with people, but it was the ONLY trail centre that I have been to that I didnt like.

One mans poison .....

My brother went a few weeks back and says he enjoyed it, I just can't see me enjoying a ride after a 3 hour drive knowing I have to do the return trip! Shame it's such a trek.

I've been up there for the last couple of days doing the mountain bike first aid training with [url= http://www.vitalsigns.org.uk/ ]Vital Signs.[/url]Very good course based at Cyclewise. I'll be reviewing the course and doing a first aid feature in the May issue of the magazine.
