I did this yesterday after watching your video. There was more water than trees ! Very muddy and slippery but fantastic for a first timer like me who is new to this sport. Thankyou.

Like a good blast around Gisburn. The volunteers have done a great job and have made the most of the forest topography. It could just do with some bigger hills as the decents are over pretty quickly.

Trail-Finder I literally just spoke to my mate he said he's been loads, even camped over (with beers) haha. I just bought my bike a few weeks ago off my cuz for £100 It's only a Scott Aspect hard tail but it'll suffice for now. I fit a new pair of forks yesterday as the suntour ones were well buggered. I've not done anything serious yet as I'm still building my legs up again lol Luckily tho I have a very active job which I think that's kept me reasonably fit. I said to wife when I turn 39 and 3/3rds I'm getting a bike again Loving it just jumping off kerbs etc 😂 Take care bro and thanks for your reply. PS we're deffo going next weekend

@@TrailFinder Don't hate me, I was on my Ebike, I have a normal trail bike but don't get much chance to get down there so when I do I take the ebike so I can spend all day there and nail the 8. Did 66 Miles on Monday on my normal bike on the canal, training to do the 127 miles Leeds and Liverpool canal in a day. BTW you are a very fast rider the video makes it look easy but I know dam tricky in some areas, and your up hill technical climbing is fantastic well done mate.
