I don't reckon the broken ribs and smashed helmet story did a lot to sell the venue 
But it really isn't that bad from the bits I've been to , plenty of options as to how extreme you want too go . Weather not looking to good though for Saturday

just want people to realise what can happen if you don't take things easy first time out at this venue, SOME of the routes are a bit extreme. As you said, it's not all like that and easier routes can be followed I don't think your picutres helped either!
I know, weather is looking a bit damp. As I said, some of the other guys going are a bit more hardcore and will be going what ever the weather!

We are meeting at one of the guys houses nearby to the woods.
The road is Parkdale - Danbury.
Follow the road down and look out for my yellow truck and a load of mountain bikers!
