Trail Reviews:
"I really enjoyed myself but had a slight accident negotiating a sharp switchback on sidewinder. No damage to me but a puncture to my front tyre. I was rescued by a group of four from Cheltenham who very kindly gave me an inner tube - peace and love to them!!" - Chris Wyatt from Swansea
"Hired Kona bikes at the Skyline shop at the centre-very high quality for their price! Penhydd is filled with long sections of sweeping singletrack - but every one of the sections come to an 'abrupt' end because of the 'gates' at the end. Not too much climbing, and a variety of singletrack too, from open views to the 'Hidden Valley' with fantastic switchbacks. It really fits into its surroundings - it doesn't look man-made at all!" - Gerallt R from Bangor
" I only rode the Penhydd Trail once but it made an impression from the start with a monster climb after a short piece of singletrack that had me wishing for a shock lockout. After this came a short piece of singletrack leading to another climb. Thankfully this was the last climb of real significance and the rest of the trail is mostly man-made singletrack incorporating lots of very tight switchbacks and obstacles consisting mainly of rocks and roots and stuttery bumps. It's the type of trail that can be tackled by different levels of rider at their own speed and still be challenging." - Neal from Shepperton
