we only went down for the day, we was meant to be doing jacobs ladder in the peaks but the weather was just too bad. i want to try to make a weekend of it to do the Tarw, that looks tasty too, i heard of a lot of people that dragons is the best thow ! is this not the case then?

The Dragon is really good, and definitely one of the most fun trails there. However, it's not as technically demanding as Tarw or MBR.

Jacobs Ladder would have been a bit more XC really, so you prob had the better day tbh.
I prefererd MBR. DB was too long with too much Fireroad, which is a personal hate of mine

+1 for the Tarw
dragons back is good for a nice drawn out ride but the climbs are long and boring where as Tarw climbs is short steep and very technical in places.

Prefer MBR has everything in a nice space.
Tawr is ok its mostly easy with only snap crackle and pop being any real problem to riders, and thats cos a lot of non welsh boy riders aren't sued to all then there rocks

Can you re-phrase that? I didn't get the second half at all.
