Most of the trail is the old red graded Red Bull. It's a really interesting trail as you can see the old school philosophy of trail building which was essentially why waste time/effort & money on uphill singletrack. The aim was to make it as easy as possible physically to gain altitude which is why it's all fire road climbs mainly and try and make descents as "natural" as possible (rough wrt hardtail 100mm travel bikes). IIRC when you do the slabs you miss out the Heart of Darkness or maybe that section is closed now? Linking this route to something like the MBR adds a great deal of variety IMO and hopefully they don't go modernising any of the classic sections too much.
Good vid. Need to include coedy and penmachno in the next trip. In some ways I’d rather smash a climb on fire road to concentrate on the descent. And I have your gloves.
