Summary:
clueless attempt at a bike park

Review:
what were they thinking, i have never seen such a collection of badly thought out and down right lethal jumps, humps and planks of wood in one place. don't get me wrong i like a bit of peril but this place is just sh*! no matter how good you are. i hate seeing money wasted like that...

Summary:
GOOD HARD RIDE

Review:
Rode Dalby red for the first time and massivly enjoyed it. Some really good fast downhill runs with some amazing switch backs (bailed hard on one of these) All round good ride although high level of fitness needed if smashing through fast.

Great Trail

Review:
I ride there most weekends, the red is great, alot of fun and very challenging, there is alot to do in the forsest, the only critisism is that some parts can get very wet in winter, but it is a great trail and well worth a visit, especially now with the world cup route aswell.

Summary:
now being made even worse

Review:
when this place was starting to be rebuilt in 2006,it seemed to be going ok,but they seem not to have a trail builder designer at all,the good bits are to far apart (and there is very few of them)the best desent in the forest has now been made into a climb,the three small drop offs on the section before it have flattened out,most of the corners on the climbs are to tight and you loose your momentum trying to get round them,it is a real shame that the potential has gone to waste in this forrest,it seems that a large amount of smoke has been blown up someones rear,since dalby has been chosen to host the world cup XC,the trail builders could do with going and riding some other places,and open their eyes as to what they are not giving dalby,at £7 this must be the most expensive forrest in the uk,

Summary:
Terrible

Review:
Dull, no flow, miles of tedious fire roads and that awful sandy raised up bit through the trees. Only redeeming feature is last 20 seconds descent through the woods. Won't be back, especially after paying £7 for parking and then being told not to use the visitor centre toilets because thay were for walkers and families!
