I have always had great experiences with the uplift at BPW.
I accept that I won’t get ten runs in as it is quite a long descent especially when running with a large group of mates (10 of us last time).
The drivers are friendly and conscientious, they ensure the bikes are secure and are paying attention in the van, they told off a young lad for sticking his head out the window which given how much the van bounces about is sound advice.
The Cafe isn’t great food but its acceptable, it would be good if there was more than one pay point for those not wanting to faff about ordering hot food.
The toilets/showers could do with being open later especially in the summer.
Overall I like the place and have always found it a pleasure to visit.
I have also been to:
Triscombe – landrover and a trailer with wheel holes cut in it!
FOD – great service, bit steep for parking on top of the uplift.
Cwm Carn – quick enough given the distance they have to travel.
UKBikepark – shut down now, lot more waiting and you got battered by the uplift.
BMCC – Good uplift, non existent services.
Swinley – terrible cafe, average facilities.
