TARLAND 2 SCOTLAND AND UK BEST TRAIL CENTRE BY FAR -------THIS IS BUCKET A LIST RIDE 

I went back a few weeks ago there spot on with maintenance. Still in great condition

Thanks so much

Hey its completely normal. Everyone is different and most are picky about there type of riding. I really ride a greate mix and appreciate moste peoples point of view. I have also heard that its allready very loose and full of breaking bumps which has diminished its perfection

Have a look at this video. Some tech just up the road ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TqBvBMf5MZo.html

Thats a really good reason to go back this year. It might have to wait a a bit as trips to spain Italy and france are coming soon subscribe for the videos

Yeah you need to make a few days of it. Visit fort William. 3 miles dh blue and Glenlivet UK longest blue. Worlftrax for some technical stuff. That makes the trip worth it

I be I would

No . Where is it ?. Is it good?

​@@LazyMTBriderComrie is not far up the road from Crieff. Its a great trail centre, pretty rocky and technical. The blue has also recently reopened after having had a bunch of work done to it

I had two batteries. One new 750wh on old 500wh that's giving out about 400wh now. I would have managed 45 miles on both but the ruined tyre ended it at ,5200 feet of climbing

yes a few times and loved it . see the video below eeyyru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ps_tdEx1Hho.html

Enjoy. Are you ebiking

No uplift. Not sure if there are any plans for this in the future however.

@@stevo_fpv933 That's a shame, it looks like there's a lot of climbing. An old bloke like me with an 'analogue' bike that has to be pedaled up hill is going to need a rest at the top

@@nsjohnston The climb isn't too bad as it zig zags its way up. Plenty places to stop for a breather. It only really gets steep if you got to the top of the hill and do the Pressure trails.

@@stevo_fpv933 How long is the climb? If I come for a day how many descents would I get in?

It's a long climb but like everything else there very well built. It's steady the whole way never getting steep at any point.

BPW is a bike park not a trail centre! So it's not in the comparison. Trail centres just to clarify are free to ride!

Understand your point, and putting aside bike park/trail centre bit, it’s a subjective comment. But that said Lazy MTB Rider (thanks for the vid BTW) is right to be so enthusiastic about it. I’ve ridden both and they’re very different - BPW definitely has less flow but more variety and much more challenging blacks but honestly Tarland (I live thirty mins away) is well worth the visit if someone of beginner/intermediate ability wants something bermy, very well designed and constructed with doable doubles and jumps. And while it’s new, no braking bumps

@@emotioneering It's not subjective though, there are very clear delineations - bike parks have uplift services and charge to ride. There is no uplift at Tarland and in Scotland you can only charge for uplift, not for access to the trails. The UK (and Scotland in particular) needs much more of this. Nevis Range should step up.

It’s a trail centre not a hotel. It’s Scotland’s first proper trail centre so its not going to be perfect, if you want an uplift go somewhere with one or ride an E-bike. As for the cafe and camping facility’s you need to realise what a trail centre is, its for bikes, you want to camp? Goto a camp site. It’s a great trail center beacuse of the trails thats what it was built for, not for camping or anything else.

Give it time, it’s only been open a couple of weeks. There are toilets. Glenlivet can support a cafe so maybe that will come. You would have to look at the numbers first. It’s an impressive place though. Hats off to all involved.

@@baxtermtb769 glentress? Plenty of trail centres

@@jimmytrump2029 sorry, meant to say Aberdeenshire don’t know why I brought up Scotland as a whole.

There are toilets and camping and town close by. Personally I'm glad they spent all of the million on trails not a cafe.

You have to ride it to understand how it feels. Pretty much unanimous positive reviews

Ride faster, jump harder and soak up the scene Liz !

Where do you ride Liz?

Tonnes of other more technical/natural trails in the area if that's more what you're into.
