Just entered too. Whats the deal with riding rheola outside of events? Is it cool? And whats the best/quickest way to push up? Nice one  Pushing's cool - but don't drive. NO UPLIFTS, INNUM  The shortest/quickest way is up the track. It's a long way round on the fire road, and you'll meet mining lorries. Probably. Thanks bob! I was just watching a video from rheola last year, and it looked like the steep chute off the fireroad with an immediate right afterwards was abit different to what it did 2-3 years ago. Has it been made easier, as I can remember it being pretty damn steep, but really really rutted aswell. Looked pretty smooth in the video, with a berm at the bottom, instead of a sheet of mdf!

Yeah, its been made easier... its been removed. You now come in from the side at a much shallower angle - but you then hit the next section much faster, which in my experiance is more painful
