Me and a mate went up there a few years ago in the week and there was a full on rave goin on in one of the fields by the river on the way to the car park, so it must be a popular spot for peeps to get off their faces and throw some shapes! We went by at about 11am and everyone was fecked but still goin for it!
I can totally understand why local residents have a problem with us being there. Fair play the majority of riders are sound but there are some TOTAL idiots involved in our sport who care about nothing but themselves, I was witness to some s**t behaviour over the weekend and it just pisses me right off when a venue as amazing as mynydd du is endangered by the idiotic behaviour of a few people who think they are rock'n'roll because they ride downhill. If you are one of these people please kindly f-k off.
Abusing marshals is not clever and not cool.
Just because you happen to think you are a good rider doesn't mean you can abuse someone who is slower than you or blatantly push into uplift queues.
Ripping up a lawn owned by someone who obviously takes a lot of pride in their house on the way to your uplift is not big and not clever. Why should that person "just let it go" because its one day a year, would you like it if someone came and trashed your garden once a year?
Rant over..
Top weekend all the same, if only all the tracks we rode were that good..
