One Giant Leap has formed after the dust has settled from the now infamous NPS downhill track set on the Giant's Foot mountain range at Llangollen. Martin, the farmer has teamed up with some local enthusiasts to create a new track down the open mountain in the shadow of the NPS track. Originally the track was intended to be an easy and civilised alternative to the NPS track .  Something seems to have gone wrong somewhere!

 As a club, We are looking at hosting uplift events and maybe more in the near future, meanwhile the track is very young and  needs more work done to it. The track is around 2 minutes in length and the uplift time is only around six minutes giving a  thrilling uplift event. Watch this space for announcements of future events.

 

One Giant Uplift

can you compete with Brendan's time and become the new king of Llangollen on the now famous BDS 2010 track?

  On the 24th and 25th of July we have a two day uplift event. The cost is £25 per day and lunch will be provided. Camping is free for those  who want to make a weekend of it. Toilets are also provided. We aim to complete 12 runs in a day but guarantee a minimum of 10. Bikes will be carried on a purpose built trailer and riders carried in a minibus.

 Breaking news

 As a club we are now affiliated with British Cycling. We can accept club members who can get involved
 with track development and testing and enjoy the benefits of British Cycling insurance. Non club  members will no longer be allowed to ride the track out of official events. New tracks are planned and  we need riders to get involved as the advice I get from riding the track is invaluable.  Uplifts will start  after the Welsh Champs and two club members will ride as Marshall Riders free of charge on every  uplift. All club members will be e-mailed as soon as uplifts dates are announced. Membership will cost  £10 per year. Click the link below  to download the membership application form.
