Tips

Mountain biking

Route 666 is exactly how it sounds, rooty hell. Its a black rated trail which consists of a challenging climb to start off with plenty of optional extra technical features on the climb. The trail then levels off for the long rooty rutty section along the top before descending for the last section. You either love this trail or hate it. The trail averages a gradient of 4% reaching a maximum gradient of around 20% and a minimum of around - 23% over 0.66 Mile.

Hard to add more than Josh has (see other tip). A nice and technical section - surprisingly, if you pick the right line you can get some real speed up. Not so sure it is a true black section, a technical red is my way of thinking.
