Just so ya know Slippery's Delight is all messed up and there's a sign that says "new trail 850m on right" pointing up the road towards Ironhorse. I rode ages up the road but didn't find anything... guess I didn't go far enough. Anyone done that new trail?

Yes. The new one is called Jafakids, the start is on the right hand side of the road (riding north) in a block that doesn't have any other trails in it. Rode it a couple of weeks ago. It's got some potential but needs to bed down a bit first, very soft when I rode it. They have built a few wee jumps in to it that don't quite work but will no doubt it will get fine tuned a bit.

:thumbsup: seconded, only been there once and all the other trails are awesome but i found raceface the most fun and if they made a trail or northshore ( fast and flowing) section in place of the clearing thats about 1/4 of the way in that would make it way more fun too i think.... it's inspired me to try and get a similar track started on our bikepark at home here :huh: just gotta find the right space

hahah agreed. but what happens if you drew two lines in the sand, parallel to each other with about a metre in between? is it just a neutral zone in the middle? :)
