  • Bike Park Wales is the DADDY of all UK bike parks! Known for it's massive trail network and endless miles of flow trails!
    In this video we session almost all the Red runs and walk through some sections to really give you a look at what Bike Park Wales is all about!
    Annoyingly A470 was closed but ACDC, Rim Dinger and Roots manoeuvres are all covered in this review. This will eventually be a 3 part mini series also breaking down the Blues and Black trails too.
    If you want an overview of BPW then check out this video here - • Bike Park Wales | Is i...

    The Bike Park Wales Ultimate Guide Is Here - mtbtrailhub.com/mtb-trails/bik...
    Also i have a Bike Park Wales podcast episode which has all the info about the place which would be perfect for anyone thinking about putting a trip together.

    Have said it before but the video quality of your edits is really good. Level above most of the MTB you tubers. Also, unlike most of the guys who have done BPW videos, you stop and talk about some of the features. Ive been to BPW many times but still appreciated these bits.

    Great info. Been a regular at BPW since it was £5 a pedal pass! Find all of the red easy apart from Root Manoeuvres (personally think it's close to a black) and Bonneyville. Love the little road gap on Vicious Valley, so many people don't try it though. Would love to have the talent and balls to ride them all properly!

      @@MtbTrailHub yeah just a bit! My favourites are Sixtapod and Vicious Valley. Two of the original trails. Prices have shot up a bit in that time, personally think it's too expensive. Plus there's no real bridge between blue and red or red and black. Doesn't really help with progression if you're not the best rider.

    • @MtbTrailHub
      @MtbTrailHub  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Gavin Diamond Yeah the prices are pushing the limits a bit but it is bloody good. They have the merger trails which are half blue/red and red/black which I thought were pretty good for progression....🤔

      Yeah Surfin Bird can really mess with your head, the drops look massive but when you actually do them they are simple. It's the fact they are blind. You just have to trust it. It's the drop into Bonneyville at 7:54 that messed me up yesterday. Took me three attempts to hit it and then I was so fixated on the first drop that after I cleared it I missed the left-hander and went wide over the grass!

      Hey Robert, Looks like i may be a bit late with this response.
      Sixtapod,Terrys belly and Popty Ping are always good blues to get going with.
      Be sure to check out the trail map regarding the trail difficulty. They have a good grading system which grades the trails from easiest to hardest.

    Hey man I'm local to bpw and usually do the reds and some of the technical blacks but the last gap jump on ACDC freaks me out l can't clear it same on watt's occurring as l hit the lip and crashed last time. Any tips? Loads of speed and pump the lip hard?

    • @MtbTrailHub
      @MtbTrailHub  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      steffan johnson It’s quite intimidating because it’s fast and blind. I usually take multiple walks up the take off on blind jumps and mark out a take off point. With a bit of speed and pop it’s not to bad 👍🏼

    Good trail information coming through in the video. You need to refrain from walking back up the trails and stopping in the middle of them though. This video will be seen by a large number of people that will consider it as acceptable behaviour. This is not the case and is dangerous for you and other riders descending the trails.

    • @MtbTrailHub
      @MtbTrailHub  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah i agree with you but i think people will do it regardless if they've seen it on a video or not. What you don't see and maybe i should mention it in some of my vids is I'm always keeping my bike and gear well out the way and very vigilant of other riders coming through.
