Penmachno was a great motor rally stage for many years and Mrs DB,s ancestors are buried in one of the Chapel cemeteries from the mid 1800s.

Sadly I have no insight of their suitability as mtb forests but I trust I have added to your general fund of knowledge lol

Lots of drop offs and the odd surprising rocky bit on Penmachno too. All rollable.

Went to Tegla instead. Checked out the blue but it’s a bit meh which is a shame considering the other trails. It started well but didn’t continue well. Underwhelmed.

Ahhh I see. James and the folks previously known as ‘the Norfolk lot’ were there today too. Looks like they did the black route.

About This Thread

Maintained by cathrobinson
Since the last appearance of Kaph, some time ago... there are now three wheel sizes, and now new plus (+) tyres for the even more adventurous!

26 / 27.5 (650b) / 29 / 27.5+ (650b+) / 29+ / fat
whatever you ride, enjoy it :)

Gravel also welcome :)

Also, is 26 dead yet?
