If you’re after serious air time with big jumps, drops and gaps, then GBU delivers on all fronts. It’s best left to confident riders, with some large step downs and gap jumps that aren’t rollable in places, though there are chicken runs. It’s easily accessed via the push-up track.

Jon’s been riding bikes for ages and has been involved in the bike industry for most of his working life too, starting out as a Saturday boy at Harry Hall Cycles before moving into the world of media via the odd stint as a mountain bike guide. He’s worked at Singletrack, headed up What Mountain Bike magazine and been tech ed at BikeRadar before arriving at the helm of road.cc’s knobbly tyred sister site off-road.cc.
He mostly rides mountain bikes up and down things as fast as possible (not always that fast to be honest) but isn’t averse to riding drop bar bikes either, whether that’s on gravel or tarmac.
He goes all funny at the mention of rubber compounds and shim stacks.
