Climbing back up after a singletrack descent The MTB trails in the forest weave in and out of the trees, but for every foot of descent, you have to flog up at some stage - this is one of the intemediate ascents.

At the top of JJ's Jumps A section of the MTB track (off to the left of shot) is known as JJ&#039;s Jumps - crossing this bridge from right to left gives access to that section, but it&#039;s followed by a bit of a climb back up to this point.

Starting a boardwalk section at Llandegla One of a series of wooden board sections of the MTB trails; this particaular one starts with a slightly intimidating drop a couple of feet high, before rolling onto the wooden planks. The guy in front of me, shortly after I took this shot, missed the first corner and landed face down on top of his bike in the mud to the right. &quot;It&#039;s OK&quot;, he said, &quot;just as well it&#039;s marshy!&quot;
