The Welsh Trail Center Table

As I'm going to be spending some time in the North West I've decided to spend the summer weekends riding the trail centers of North and South Wales.

I started last week at coed llandegla and I plan to ride Coed y Brenin next weekend.

As well as riding each trail center I'm going to blog with details of the ride - good points, bad points etc.

So here's the summary guide to coed llandegla:

Good Points
It's only an hour away.
Friendly, good mannered riding.
The black run is a blast.
Epic views.
The girls in the cafe are gorgeous, so are the bacon butties

Bad Points
Not the most natural of trails.
Bloody midgies
The red route aint worth the journey

Total points scored (out of 10) = 7

Baby P - This makes me sick

I find it almost impossible to believe that Baby P’s stepfather has appealed against his sentence!!!!

Now Bri has already blogged on this and made his feelings well known. Most ‘normal’ people (including me) would agree with every word that he wrote. However this obviously doesn’t apply to the faceless bureaucrats running the British Judicial system.

I don’t want to rant on here; I think that the bastard should just be taken outside and stoned to death - not given the right to a f***g appeal. He foreclosed all his rights once the evil bastard started torturing an innocent three year old boy.

I’d be more than happy to throw the first stone.

What more could you ask for?

Well I have finally popped my 'Welsh Cherry' and ridden my first trail centre in Wales.

I managed to ride both the red and black trails Coed Y Llandegla on Sunday. The weather was bright and sunny, the trails where dry and the place was one of the friendliest that I've been to.

The real surprise of the day however was the number of fit girls around! Now you don't often see many members of the fairer sex out riding trails so when you do and they're fit it's always a real bonus.

The best site of the day was a rather attractive young lady nailing the black run on a fully rigid bike. Now that is something that I would pay to see again :)

Even the girls in the cafe where fit. Oh and the bacon butties are the best ever.

I think that I might go back .... soon ..........
