The .Org Mountain Bike day - Take 2
 
Howdy All,

On Saturday the 15th of January, my best mate is coming up from Bristol and is bringing his mountain bike as we are planning on heading into Wales along with DMC. So my thought was we would either do Llandegla or Penmachlo again......unless of course anyone has any suggestions?

Reason for my post......anyone fancy joining us? I can't offer beds etc this time, but would be good to meet up with anyone if they are free.

Cool....anything in particular?

Also, plenty of places do reasonable hire bikes....always an option if anyone doesn't have a bike.

Nah, won't get it through in 2 weeks. If the scheme was already running maybe.

Luckypants / Badger - If / when you see this. What is the Marin trail like compared to the ones we did?

As I know virtually nothing about mtb's the boardman ones seem to be well specced for the money, so looking at these first.
I have zero kit as well so at the least I need a helmet.

I'll let Badger answer that one, I haven't ridden the Marin in ages.

Oh and if you are considering driving as far as the Marin, then Coed-y-Brenin at Dolgellau has more choice and is probably same distance for you.
