Trail all clear now, except for one tree, about half way round. Take care though as reports are coming in of leaves may be on the track  |

I've only ridden the Marin trail with the February 2014 forum ride, but we only did a couple of miles of it before going off piste... Is the whole trail way marked to make your way round without a map?
Cheers Adam

Rode the Marin yesterday and noticed a new section being built.
It is after the dragons back etc.
Starts at the tarmac road above Tý hyll, and runs all the way to the tarmac road from Betws.
Cutting out the existing downhill on the fire road, and the steep tarmac climb up to the bridge section, (comes out where you join that section).
Just wondering if anyone had any more info?

We met up with Ben K during the forum ride a couple of weeks ago as he'd been around The Marin. He reeckons it looks a lot like a 'Trail Centre' type of trail,which probably means nice and smooth. It will make a nice change from the fireroad section though Not sure when it's due to open though. |

Can someone clue me up about trail changes please. Not done Marin for 6 months since my final descent off, but if there's a gap in this Sundays weather, I'm hoping to get a morning spin in.  |
