Rheola would be ace, as I didn't make it the other week. Shame about mountain ash cos apart from the broken bit, I rode it about a month ago and it was ace. Fingers crossed for Abercarn, that's such an ace little track.

I fear you may have over-aced! Grin

gutted there is no mountain ash, was really looking forward to it, maybe they could use it like for round 5 if it was ok by then?
rheola would be nice or maybe even cwm carn if uplifts were a bit better for round 4

whats wrong with the tractors at taff buggy?? they're bound to be less problematic than the buses and trailers

The one time i raced there the uplift was awesome, not a single queue all weekend!

Plus I loved parking in a field at the top of a course, beats the usual dragon fireroad

taff is private land isn't it?

So can't it be run old skool, bikes and people on the same trailer?  There is no forestry h&s to deal with..

Just like caersws...

I'm not sure about how long the track needs to be and this may sound stupid (sorry if it is) but what about Kilvey hill?

that would be cool, it does say something about putting the top section through some other fields
