15 hours you could drive anywhere in the country in that time. Where are you coming from Lands End or John O'Groats ?

I like it. Some decent DH stuff. It's about a 2 hour drive for me and find it's worth the journey.

It's holding up pretty well, rode there last week. Some of the climbs / linking sections are pretty muddy but the best bits are riding fine. You can easily link some of the dh runs into the xc route as well. Eastridge is good fun as well while you're in the area, not sure what state it's in tho
