I’m a bit of a blue route lameo – I rode the red about 10 years ago, but I’ve lost a bit of confidence since then (or gained a bit of common sense, I came a bit of a cropper on Pennels Vennel!). I normally ride Spooky Wood though. Shame about the skills area – last time we went was the first year we’d seen the central area stripped, was hoping it was in a transitional phase!
I have no idea about the off-piste stuff, so I’ll be giving it a swerve as no-one wants to be the tourist that rides above their level splatters themselves on a cheeky trail! Especially as I’ll be riding alone (me and t’husband have to take it in turns).
It’s going to be ace though, I’d happily ride the blue every day (and probably will!)
