Hi guys
Here in the UK we have some of the best trails in the world. I was just wondering what do you think are the best trails in the UK.
Heres the best I've ridden:
Carron Valley-Red
Glentress-Red(includes spooky wood)
Fort William-World Champs
Laggan Wolftrax

Down south the best places are Surry hills and Swinley forest.
But the best place i have been is Afan and Brecfa in south wales that was amazing.
