Looks pretty cool. Time for you boys to get out and do some exploring so you can be the gracious hosts and show me all the best lines this time around :thumbsup .

Hi Chaps,

To clarify Lee is correct in that most of the video is the trail we showed you the other Sunday where Justin did that jumpin the mud, that then goes down into that natural gulley/half pipe and it is in LW.
Ashton Hill and The Plantation are one in the same which is forestry Land. Myself and Justin rode over to Stills Wood last week to have a quick look around but it looked like no new building had been done as they are trying to agree terms with the UWE who own the land to have a proper managed club like the Black Cannon Colletive have at Longleat. :yoda
That al doo Donkey

It would be really cool if it was the plantation.
I went there last July just before Bristol uni found out what was going with the land
There were some nice DH section coming down and a cross leading to the road jump to the bermy sections to the huge jumps and the bottum.
That day we came a cross the very unfriendly Bristol Mountain Bike Club giving us evils and did not speak to us waiting at the top for us to go.

I'm pretty sure its the plantation. Apparently its been built up quite a bit recently. Defo worth a reccy.
- The secret to mountain biking is pretty simple. The slower you go the more likely it is you’ll crash.
- No one gets hurt in the air
- There is no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing.

But parts look like Ashton Hill as well. It looks to large to be Still woods.
If at first you dont succeed, spend 6 hrs in casualty, then try again !!!
