Cheers, saw that on YR web forecast , with a bit of rain thrown in tomorrow. Was thinking about the ground conditions tbh, whether muddy or fairly dry there.

Should be a dry day Sunday which is good news :)

It's rained down there this week. I'll be just down the road but can't join in I'm afraid as will be with family. Great place to ride!

Had an awesome time
wasn't expecting such full on rooty riding but was really enjoying bounding around from root to drop to berm.
having an up lift is brilliant it takes all of the sting out of a 1000ft back to the top after each descent.
if anyone is pondering going down there get on it asap there is so much to ride there but remember to keep your head up and stay loose!

big thanks to Jim and Clint for showing us all the runs.

Great time all round, really improved on my riding ability and got looser as the runs added up, some mega fun runs and still think rough rooty step/drop runs (maybe par the insanely slippy sharp turns) are still my favourite style of downhill trail.

Just a shame its so far away!

Excellent time had again at Triscombe with great company. Cheers again for leading us around Jim & Clint.

Conditions could have been a lot worse and the forest was drying out somewhat by the end of the day.Front ST Minion held up well thankfully!

Amazing runs there and shame they seem to be over so quick but you do get a great grin factor!! Top place :thumbup:
