'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.

'HOT & HARD'

Strengths:
Very easy going, you still felt like you were on holiday even though you were getting your ass ragged up & down mountains in 40 degree heat.

Weaknesses:
Local rides are so slow, flat & poxy in comparison

Overall:
It was the hardest thing I had ever done, the rides were out of this world & our guide [Ryan] tried to kill us - constantly. But was awesome & can not wait to go back. We were well looked after (a part from the attempts on our life) & got to partake in extra curricular activities such as hippie bashing & dog fighting (Bella picking on Oscar). Was fab, learnt a lot, had a laugh. Did I mention it was hot?
