Great for anyone.

Review:
I live about 10 minutes away from these trails so I go there on a regular basis. When I first here I could barely make it down most of the runs, other than the dual line and the main line. After only a few months I can do all of the runs and a few of the huge doubles, despite injuring myself trying! I only have a short travel hardtail so you really don't need a big DH bike although it would be nice! The ground there is very sandy so it is actually great after a bit of rain, but after a dry spell can get quite loose. The trails themselves are very varied with the top sections being very bumpy, rooty and tight whilst lower down there are larger drops and jumps with a lot more open space. The guys there are generally very friendly and after breaking my collarbone there they were very supportive and got me to A&E pretty rapidly, so you'd be in safe hands. One thing I would say is that the runs are all very short and the climb to the very top is very long fir the amount of time you spend on the trail.

Review:
it was an awesome afternoon but if your on a hardtail like i was it does get bumpey in playes, i would of prefered to be full sus, however word cup dh standard bikes arent needed. my mate was on a alpine 160 and his bike coped fine. There is beginner stuff all the way to crazy hips and a few drop offs. Only critisism they aint long enough maybe 30 secs long.

Went to Rogate for the firs time today and it was wicked, so many tracks, jumps and drops to choose from, I cant believe I didn't make the effort to go there sooner.
