You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Me and my mates are looking at going to Wales at the end of March for a short bike holiday. I was hoping we could do some kind of a round trip starting at Llandegla and working our way down/round through CyB to end up at Cwmcarn for an uplift before coming back home, maybe stopping at FoD on the way back up for another uplift. Anyone done something similar and if so what was your route? We're coming from Northamptonshire if that helps. We'll only have about 6 days so not sure how many places we'll get to visit.
My mates are pretty new to riding so I doubt we'll be doing anything uber-gnarcore and I don't like really techy riding anyway, for me its all about the flow, drops and jumps 🙂 So which of the trail centres would be best for us?
bump for the evening lot 🙂
'don't like tech,don't like hardcore,don't like pedalling'....mmmmmmmmmmm
Go to a bmx/pump track tour for a week maybe 😕
Nant Yr Arian would (IMO) be worth a visit, you might also enjoy an afternoon riding the ClimachX trail too.
Rorscach I never said any of that 😕
The more smooth flowy bermy trail centers with lots of jumps, tabletops etc are Brechfa, FOD, Llandegla, Cwm Rhaeadr for me. Afan, CyB are a bit more of the rocky techy style but they're not out of the scope of beginner riders.
You will like afan. it has got lots of flow.
Cheers I'll look into those then 🙂 CyB looks good from YouTube vids as well.
F.o.d
Cwmcarn
Afon
Brechfa
N.Wales
Or same reversed. I haven't done any of the north trails yet but it is in planning.
You could do fod & cwmcarn in 1 day
All i'll suggest is if you're considering Penmachno, make it your last stop.I really like the place, but it's usually awash, and the next few days won't be half as much fun in sodden boots 😀
Did 5 days/5 centres back in Sept. Started at Llandegla, then did CyB, then Brechfa, then Afan, then Cwmcarn.
We had a shitload of rain at Brechfa which meant Afan was ridden with somewhat moist kit.
A good time.
Stayed in bunkhouse at Dolgellau for 2 nights after Llandegla, and CyB then down to Brechfa. Stayed at home post-Brechfa but the plan was to camp at Glyncorrwg.
