50 Shades of Black with Laurie Greenland
No BDSM in this one, just a preview ride of BikePark Wales newest black trail ’50 shades of black’ which opens this coming Friday. Laurie Greenland gives us a snapshot of it.
Trek World Racing rider, Laurie Greenland gives the all new black trail at BikePark Wales “50 Shades of Black” a preview ride.
BikePark Wales newest trail “50 shades of black” will open this Friday 27th February. “50 shades” is their longest and gnarliest black trail to date, with a classic Welsh mix of rock, roots and mud. The trail has been named 50 shades of black due to the varying surfaces, topography, trail style and vegetation all within this single trail.
50 shades uses an as yet unused part of the hill on the south side of the mountain at BikePark Wales and descends the full 280 metre vertical drop over its 1.8 kilometre length.
Additionally BikePark Wales will soon be opening a new pro-line section which peels off the lower slopes of 50 shades which will be known as “Join the dots”. This new pro-line option uses natural rock ledges and boulders to create step downs, hips and doubles that will test even the very best of riders.
