27 mountain bikers from Redhill Cycling Club spent 3 days in South Wales enjoying the trials in Cwm Carn and Afan Forrest. Here’s what some of them had to say.
The club is all things to all men and women; you want extreme, you got it, you want general fitness, you got it, you want weekends away, you got it, you want a social life, you got it.. so join and enjoy a side of life with a multitude of rewards - Christian FN
These trips are excellent - for first timers to the more experienced, you have the chance to enjoy more extreme riding, and man-made trails. A really good aspect of the RedhillCC - John T
Bring it on dudes!! These trails are what mountain bikes were invented for - can't wait for the next one. Well done to all the organisers - Marcus R
Pedal power to Redhill CC. My bike's been taken to the limit now and the trails are something else. Who needs roller coasters with white knuckle rides like these! Fantastic time in Wales, thanks for bringing me along! - Steve B
As a first timer to man-made trails, this has been a fantastic experience, especially the 'boardwalks' - Graham B
Fantastic weather for Wales, challenging and exhilarating trails along with great company; a perfect weekend - Fran
I never knew I could ride down that!
RedhillCC continues to grow from strength to strength on the back of such well run and well attended events such as this. The people who benefit are those that take up the challenge and expand their skills by joining in to the full. Its also massive fun too..!! - Jon L
No more of this bloody rocky stuff! Well I dunno, thrills and spills, fells and gels. Uphill down dale, as simple as that? no way! - Afan-tastic weekend
Legs weary, arms pumped, covered in dust and a huge grin. Another great day in the mountains
It pushed me and it made me do things I didn't think I could do! I loved it!
Challenging, tough, good company and came back with a huge grin. What more could you ask for!
As Clint Eastwood says 'A man should know his limitations!’ Well these weekends give all those attending the opportunity to find out for themselves! - Dave P
My pleasure is seeing club members faces as they travel through the 'rock garden' - Garry
What makes all the organising worthwhile is seeing the sheer delight on peoples faces as they fly through the undulating trails. It was good to see several club members really excel in their riding ability. Awesome riding the Skyline followed by the Whytes trail - Richard S
