Good things take time, like an aged cheese. Named after a section in the middle that's busy. Lots of shapes to ride so best to ride it a few times, or behind someone who knows the lines. Enjoy.

Beeturia is the passing of red or pink urine after eating beetroots or foods colored with beetroot extract or beetroot pigments. The color is caused by the excretion of betalain (betacyanin) pigments such as betanin. The coloring is highly variable between individuals and between different occasions, and can vary in intensity from invisible to strong. Beeturia is often associated with red or pink faeces...

A great trail to finish your ride and exit the forest on. Especially in winter if Tunnels is a bit damp.The trail follows an old tram alignment, and can be rolled or attacked depending on your mood. And there's lots of natural shapes and roots to keep you smiling.

Our newest black offering, FTB starts casually enough but steepens and becomes more technical as you progress down. A new instant forest classic, with a hint of Vegas.

A short fun flowy section of trail, featuring a sweet table top. A great place to session, Gravel Pit comes with goldilocks options: easiest to the left, sweet fast rollover drop in the middle, and easier to the right. All lead to the table top.Around the right hand rim of the pit is what's known locally as the Redbull Line - with a nose rollover followed by a gap. Down the middle of the pit is a drop to steep run-out (signposted 'danger danger').
