Time: 2 5mins per run

WHY RIDE HERE?

An impressive array of manmade flow trails, ranging from beginner-friendly to 40ft gaps

RAD…

If you like sending jumps and blasting berms then you’ve come to the right place

As you go through the grades, each trail is progressively harder than the last, so they make for great stepping stones in progression

The undercover tarmac pump track is ace for bad weather or dark winter days

BAD…

The lack of tree cover can make the bigger jumps a bit sketchy in the wind

Similarly, there’s no shelter from the rain and the natural dirt can get slippery

The trail surface has worn quite rough and rubbly in some places – it’s a big ask for Tom to keep everything running at its best all the time
