Nevis Red (new track) - it is a an intermediate 'red' standard like the World Champs route in the forest - with some tricky black sections which are all ridable if you get the right line.
Changes to the red track for 2010;
- It has chicken wire as well as non slip paint on the board walk.
- Various tricky bits have been made easier
- The final section bit has been finished down to the puggy line.
Changes to the Downhill:
2010 saw a big project in the spring to change the downhill - to make it different but also to make it more sustainable. Ride with care if you have not been down this year because it is very different.
