do you need a suspension mtb for this or would a hard tail be ok? got an old mtb i've just started using don't really want to shell out big bucks for a new bike just yet

Darkside - you evil swine - that is not helping my plight!!

Yeah - cable tow much better on a cloudy weekday when kids are at school! I've been during holidays once & had to queue for a few mins, but still wasn't too bad - but during the week is ideal! Hopefully next week!

Max - you can do llandegla on a hard tail no problem, but may have blurred vision for a while afterwards! Last time I went my very unfit mate survived it on his old crappy hardtail no worries!

Max,

I've got a Hardtail and it's fine - Llandegla is not tremendously extreme - and besides going uphill you'll overtake all the full sus 'bouncers'

The worst part for me is a log bridge that has a couple of 90 degree turns, a small climb and a short descent - deffo blurred vision there......

Ern.

Dudes, think you should pack you kit and consider traveling further east to Fraisthorpe if you are playing on Mon /Tues. Looking promising for some action if northerly winds materialize!

John - u have a point! At last some wind 4cast for mon - weds next week!!! Woo Hooo!

I can feel a rhossy trip coming on already!

Ern - yep - that log bridge is a nightmare isn't it!! False teeth not recommended!

Feck!

Been out once since midle of April and the wind turns up when my mate is on holiday so I can't get out in work time. Might just have to snatch a couple of hours at WK after work.

Shawn my false teeth were fine at Llandegla even with a hardtail - just take them out before the start
