Lots of riders are asking about Llangollen and were it is and can we ride it, so just to clear things up.

This is not a legal venue, yet, so stay away, anyone found riding there, who is not part of the SPS team, will be given a 12 month rolling ban from the NPS.
I know you think this is harsh, but when you are able to ride this course, you will understand why, please do not take this the wrong way, the red tape and local opposition to this venue are big.
6 riders were caught there on Wednesday 16th July and 3 have already been banned, the other 3 will incurr the same penalty

The few could wreck this great new venue for the majority

So is this a going to be a future new venue...... for next year or something

is it allways going to be private or is the plan to make it open to the public...that area doesnt hav much dh so it would be great???

Right, wicked so hopefully if the FC are co-operative! This would be fantasitic for the sport and the  Dh riding in Wales if this was done, im looking forward to hearing from you and hopefully good news

a permanent venue here would be sooo sweet ! there is not much here apart from foel... any idea on what the track is like (steep, pedaly, tech, flat-out) and an approximate time ... cheers.

The track is steep, steep, steep and steeper still, this will probably be the steepest venue about, when legal, but the track still seems to have a lot of speed, this is something you will find hard to get your heads around because of the gradient.
General description would be - Tight, twisty, steep, top sections opening out into a open, switch back type steep corners, then into fast middle section, with quarry drop, then really open loose steep corners in the final wooded section into fly off then big hipper into finish arena. Should take, on a clean run, about 3-3.30min, on a bad day about 10-15minutes

banging.. sounds like dh!!! no pedals and let it rip!!! bwarrrrp

cant wait to hit this up.. i have ateep track now down my way proper mental.. so steep that it take syou 2hrs to get back up it adn about sub 2 to get down.. flat out full on knarly!

yuoo name it it has it (apart from rocks but im shipping some in, no small ones though 4feet in hight minimum!)

anyone with some skills vcan hook up with me and have a blast!

Any update on this Parr, when will we be able to ride the track?  It has to open at some point before the race, because even if 99% of us stay away until the race there will clearly be people who have been riding/building it for months who would gain a massive racing advantage if the course was shut until race day.

also, in llangollen there are quite a few pubs!! got super hammered last time I was there!!

and a good driving road over to Llandegla!
