Please join me as I ride Dirt Farm for the first time in 2026, and boy-howdy, this place did not disappoint. 🀩🀍

In this episode, I share my experiences and insights into this fantastic MTB trail centre, from the climb up to the trailhead, how many descents I think I could manage, the trails I rode, including the blue and red trails, and even the genius behind the tiny red flags before jump options. 😊

I hope 🀞🏼 my first time at Dirt Farm in 2026 gives an example of a below-average rider and how much fun I had at this epic bike park in Wales.🏴󠁧󠁒󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

After 6 complete top-to-bottom runs, I had 65% battery remaining, and I felt I could easily manage 12 top-to-bottom runs in one day. This is on my 2024 Whyte E 160 RSX with a 750 Wh battery and a Bosch Gen 4 motor, which delivers 85 Nm of torque and 600 Wh of power.

I’m also sharing my links to Strava and Kamoot so you can copy the trails and follow for yourself if this is your first time riding this lovely trail centre. 🀩

My diary entries celebrate the MTB community: a place where we lift each other, no one is left behind, and cheer on every milestone, no matter how small. 🀍 πŸ€™πŸΌ

You are all truly AWESOME! 🀩 Thank you, my friends. πŸ™πŸΌ

I share this diary entry, hoping 🀞🏼 I will start expressing my gratitude and showcase others achieving their goals, just as I have. βœ…

My videos are not just about me; they are about MTB and one of the most remarkable revelations I have encountered: you, the MTB community that has consistently had a positive impact on me, as you have on each other. 🀍

I want to sincerely thank the MTB community for their incredible kindness, warmth, and support. Not only have I been welcomed into the community, but I've also had the joy of joining and organising group rides where I genuinely feel I have had the most fun, the most incredible adventures, and even the most significant progression in MTB. 😊

Until the next time, my friends, 😊 I wish you absolute LEGENDS πŸ™ŒπŸΌ now and always, many, many Happy Trails, my friends. πŸ€™πŸΌ
