Ah, that's the one Damo went straight up and over and Tom then followed..

As it was dark I wasn't gonna chance it but doesn't look too bad in daylight..
Look forward to getting over for a daylight ride and having a go. Sorry, doing it :)

There is jumps if you want them, there's a lot less roots than epping, but its wooded, and has mud so i would say quite similar :lol:
