This will be my first time there. It's joint run by CTC and forestry commission. Similar to Aston hill I think. I'll report back after. :)

Oh and a huge road gap but I hear that could have been removed?

Yep it was similar to what you described but has been sanitised a bit. Runs are taped. Jumps are tables. No road gap. Good fun though. Really loose and sandy trails. There are about 8. Quite steep at the top and then a few jumps on the lower flater section. A great day out.

Where is it? Is there a cost, or is it free to ride?

West Sussex. Down the A3 towards Brighton. £4 for a day pass. Parking is limited to a lay-by. Check out their Facebook page "Rogate
Downhill"

@chingfordvin - great video - that is exactly how it was although I may have been going a little slower :)

@karve - Tilgate is actually nearer to me than Rogate. I think i'll try it out on Thursday!
