Superb days riding & enjoyed it more than I expected  That old red route was brilliant & mixed in with the turns & berms at the bottom of the blue made for quite a ride Big thanks to smithy & chris for stopping to take the photos |

If you're going to pick a day to go to Antur Stiniog, you may as well pick a day with glorious weather and no wind An excellent day today, about 10 of us in total turned up for a day of being driven to the top of the mountain so we could enjoy the delights of bombing down as quick as we can without killing ourselves. And no-one got hurt in the slightest, which is more than we can say for our bikes  Most of us stuck to combinations of the blue and red, both of which are fun on full suspension bikes. And to be honest, they were good enough for us as we knew our limits and wanted to get home in one piece. Dave Woody and Tim were giving it large on the black, while Tony had a couple of goes on the black to complete his day. Cheers to those that turned up, I think it's fair to say we all had a good craic and enjoyed the banter on the way up and down. Good to see Dave and Tim again, and also meet up with Adam who had driven up from Birmingham with his mate for the day. Also, a special mention must go to Gareth who rode to Antur Stiniog from Anglesey on his Brompton, and especially for coming up the Nant Francom Pass, down the Ogwen valley towards Betws Y Coed, before cutting over the Ellen's Revenge route to Dolwyddelan before climbing up the Crimea Pass  I was just a little impressed. Anyway, if you're unsure about giving the place a go, have a look at the pictures and see what you missed.                      |

Not much more to add to the above. It took a few runs to get your eye but then quickened up when you started getting lines sorted and remembered what was coming up.
Thanks to Tarbo for taking my old banger there for me and giving me a lift back to Prestatyn afterwards not to mention Dave for the pedals. Need to get there more often
