Dyfi Enduro 2011 – Race Report
The Dyfi Enduro 2011 came around quicker than expected but the day dawned cool, windy but most importantly dry as a bone and it had been that way for weeks. The trails were set to be fast, dry and dusty and all looked set for an amazing day. I gave Jon a lift to Machynlleth...
It’s all happening this weekend
First up, it’s the Dyfi Enduro on Sunday. I’ve known about this for months, but that doesn’t mean that me or my bike is ready for it. However, I can’t get out of it now, I’ll just have to do the best I can and aim to enjoy it. It won’t be helped by the...
Dyfi Enduro 2011 – Pre-riding the full route
We did our customary pre-ride around the Dyfi Enduro course yesterday in what can only be described as perfect conditions. Warm, sunny and without any significant rain for a while the trails were in the main dry and dusty. Riders were thin on the ground, probably because it was Easter Sunday, but Dave, Dave, Simon,...
Dyfi Enduro 2011 Trails
Just over a week to go now until the Dyfi Enduro 2011 so we were once again checking out some of the trails on our evening ride last night. This time we started at the northern end of the forest to ride some of the trails we rarely ride. Dave Reed couldn’t make it so...
Getting Ready for the Dyfi Enduro

ClimachX Night Ride
I haven’t been out on my Mountain Bike much lately, but with only 3 weeks until the Dyfi Enduro I thought it was time to re-acquaint myself with it. John and I did a night ride in the Dyfi Forest last night. John had a brand new Trek Fuel EX8 to demo so after a...
Llandegla MTB Video
Here’s the other video from my Mountain Bike Ride at Llandegla on Sunday.
Llandegla MTB
Anna and Morgan were away on the Isle of Man for the weekend and I had to collect them from Liverpool on Sunday afternoon which provided me with a perfect excuse for a mountain bike ride at Llandegla. I drove up in the morning on lovely clear roads in the sunshine. The drive itself was...
Tarren Ridge MTB Ride Trail Guide
February 27th dawned grey damp and windy, but the Ystwyth-MTB club had a ‘proper wilderness’ ride on the agenda. Things weren’t looking too promising as we drove to meet in Machynlleth. The Tarren ridge that we were supposed to be riding was shrouded in dark grey clouds and didn’t look too inviting. Dave, John, Pete,...
