'FANTASTIC HOLIDAY WITH THE BOYS!'

Strengths:
Knowledge of the area, great trails & fab food!

Weaknesses:
Not enough to eat during the day - well for me that was ok but for the boys in my group.. they were hungry! However you don't want to be stuffing your face when you have the 2nd half of the day to ride! Its not easy!

Overall:
Bloody brilliant! x

'THE MUTT'S NUTS! '

Strengths:
It'd be hard to pick on strength.
the trails
the friendliness of the place
the village
the experience as a whole

Weaknesses:
there isn't enough time in a week to fit everything in!

Overall:
the trails are amazing with a surprising amount of variety in the area, i was expecting it all to be similar.

Sure you have to earn you descents, but there was never a climb that i didn't think was worth it.

Don't make the mistake of thinking the guides (Josh and Lee) are going to be a bit slower on the downs than they are on the ups, i couldn't keep up either way!

Si, Emm, Josh and Lee are really great hosts who clearly enjoy it as much as we did.
we will be back asap!

'TECHNICAL, FAST, FUN, SUNNY: AS MORISH AS CRYSTAL METH'

Strengths:
well, where to begin??!
quite simply the most fun i've had on a bike...ever! these trails have everything, really tricky slow speed (for me!) technical, to screamingly fast swoopy singletrack.
superb accommodation and swimming pool, and Simon and Emma couldn't be better hosts.

Weaknesses:
not a lot really, its quite warm in august but i was expecting that before i arrived. It was a nice dry heat so with plenty of water it didn't cause any problems.

Overall:
Superb really, i'll be going back as soon as i can. The hardest thing about going back will be deciding whether to ride new trails or doing the same ones again and knowing what to expect!
then there is nightriding...

'TOUGH UPHILLS BUT BRILL'

Strengths:
we had an ace leader -Owen and as we were a party of 6 we had a place to ourselves in a sort of way. Food was ace and beer/wine came with it.

Weaknesses:
Missed out on the classic trail of riding to the seaside

Overall:
brilliant choice of trails, really friendly folk and patient with putting up with the slow coaches.

Weaknesses:
None

Overall:
If you can get a slot book now.
