Cannot believe we were all up at the crack of dawn and drove for 2 hours only to find ALL the roads to the trail centre were fully blocked with police.Seems theres some big road race on in the hills surrounding the trails.
There were loads of disgruntled MTBs all trying to find a way through to the centre,i gave up in the end and came home...LIVID
I checked the web site thouroughly before setting off and there was no mention of this.???
Seems ridiculous to me.
Surely it was someones job/responsibilty to do this??

There's a warning in the oneplanet website.
Did you just turn round and go home??

Alternatively you maybe could have parked up [url= https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=53.037871,-3.140784&daddr=&hl=en&geocode=&sll=53.037807,-3.140588&sspn=0.007212,0.019076&vpsrc=0&t=h&mra=mift&mrsp=0&sz=16&ie=UTF8&ll=53.038155,-3.140588&spn=0.007212,0.019076&z=16&iwloc=ddw0 ]somewhere like this[/url] and ridden in the back way...

Edit, scrap that - that road is on the etape route as well..

There's a specific message on the front page of the coedllandegla website discouraging this kind of behaviour. ๐Ÿ™‚

I find it funny that the stupid hackers are going on about gayering and that Jesus bloke, and at the very bottom of the page it says "Aren't birds great?".

Women are fab (hi Emsz if you're about!) but I'll stick to the gayering myself. As for Jesus, I'd have to see how cute he is first ๐Ÿ˜€

We did a road bike event today that was supposed to have a lunch stop at the cafe at Llandegla trail centre but we weren't allowed on the closed roads either so we had to divert to a butty van at a nearby lead mine.
