CAN AVERAGE BIKERS ENJOY THE MTB TRAILS AT DYFI BIKEPARK ?

  • Is Dyfi bikepark as fun or as scary as it appears on social media. When I found out I was heading to the bikepark I was struck by fear. The fear of not have ridden my bike in 6 weeks, not hit a single jump and have been on a stable diet of takeaway food. Great! After watching a few videos on CZcams of some other mountain bike channels going there I felt a little more at ease knowing that the place was not strictly full of these huge crazy jumps you seen online.
    We spent the day getting shuttled to the top and trying to ride as many of the tracks in the bikepark as possible. I will say though, my fitness or my bike skill was nowhere near the level I was once and yet I had such a good day. All the boys in the group including my father was able to handle every trail we descended into and got out the other side with either a huge smile or a thrill of surviving a section. The Athertons have done an outstanding job on creating a bikepark that allows everyone to have a good time on the hill!

    My first ride back after having 6 weeks off and WOW! This bikepark is mental. If you have not had the chance of riding there yet, please check it out. No video or pictures do the place justice!

    Great vid! I love it there 😊 One thing that’s hard to portray are the speeds you can achieve and some of the big berms are steep, almost shutes. Anyway, glad you mentioned your dad. Us oldies can shred the likes of Dyfi well enough to look cool with the younger gang - I’m 67 and my 60 yr old mate’s even ‘faster’. 🎉🎉🎉 Liked and subscribed!!!

    Haha there is no way any of you are average riders! See my recent videos of the speed I took 50 Hits at and my inability to make any of the jumps but I'm only 2 years into having a full suspension bike so hopefully I can get to something like your levels soon 👍 EDIT - spotted my camper in the car park so must have been there on the same Saturday a few weeks ago 😁
