Good, but not brilliant

Review:
The trail builders should be congratulated for what they have managed with limited elevation, but ultimately the lack of altitude leaves you wanting more.

On the plus side, the paucity of elevation means that the climbs are short and sweet and you are rewarded with frequent downhill sections. Anyone familiar with Swinley Forest or Surrey hills will feel right at home here as the trail is often enclosed in closely-knit pine trees and the trail surface is reminiscent of fireroad - in the dry this can prove to be unpredictable as it contains large, shiny pieces of flint.
Some of the drops offs are quite steep and there are a few technical rocky sections that are best avoided by newbies, but most of the ride is manageable by all but novices.

It’s a shame that none of the sections have been given ‘nicknames’, instead they are labelled D1, 2, 3 etc and this feeds through into the trail itself; which is short of an outstanding signature section of singletrack.

Don’t get me wrong, you will have fun, but you are left with the feeling that there is a something missing…
