🚵 Exploring Cwmcarn Forest: A Welsh Adventure with OnlyFrans! 🌲
Join us for another thrilling Welsh adventure as we venture into the scenic landscapes of Cwmcarn forest, also known as Risca. From beginner trails to challenging downhill tracks, this forest has something for every level of rider.
🔵 Trail Centre Delights:
Kickstarting our journey, we tackle the PWCA blue graded trail, a perfect warm-up loop near the car park. Then, we dive into the more challenging red graded trails – the Twrch and the Carfall. These scenic routes offer exhilarating climbs and rewarding descents. For those seeking an extra challenge, the Pedalhounds downhill track awaits at the top of the Carfall trail.

🏁 Prepping for Enduro:
Exciting news! The Western Bike Events Enduro Series will host a round of the Valleys Enduro Series on these very trails later this year. We seize the opportunity to hone our skills and prepare for the upcoming enduro race.
⛰️ Downhill Thrills:
Venturing to the top of Forest Drive, we tackle one of Cwmcarn’s renowned downhill race tracks. Previously used for the British Downhill Series, this black graded trail offers optional gap jumps and natural rock features, providing the ultimate adrenaline rush.

🌿 Off-Piste Adventures:
Our exploration continues as we traverse the unofficial, off-piste trails of Cwmcarn forest. From the exhilarating Busy Lizzie with its roots and rock drops to the adrenaline-pumping descent of Wacko Jack, each trail offers its own unique challenge.

Fran, you would absolutely hate/$hit where I live. Look up MTB North Carolina (in particular pisgah national forest ,Kitsuma trail). That’s my backyard. It’s all roots, rocks and off camber steeps. Those trails you and James were riding look so fun to me. Easy as.
