Is Dirt Farm Too Much For Beginners?

Heard a lot about Black Mountains Cycle Centre - so we had to go check the bike park out and see if it lived up to the hype. Short answer... YES... BUT... is it a suitable place to visit IF you're a beginner to bike parks, or even riding in general?
Sure... the place can be described as a 'downhill pump track' with huge 45 foot jumps thrown in for good measure.... but it also has a TON of other more-friendly trails.
Check out our video of what we thought of our first time riding at Black Mountains Cycle Centre, as well as the trails we'd recommend riding if it's your first time visiting.

God that last run got me so hyped, can't imagine how stoked i'd be to have a run like that

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Really, really fun set of jumps!

[@avidviewer1]

Brilliant episode. Thanks so much! BTW These videos are getting way too scary for me (but I'm already looking forward to the next one) . . .

[@wolfpack_adventures]

You and me both! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@wingerdinger1]

That was a great vid! And what a way to end it! Awesome👍

[@Coolcmsc]

Another great one! Together with Degla recently, you’re smashing it for those of us trying to progress. You make me want to go. Other creators make a lot of us feel it’s a bit of ‘risk’ driving halfway across the country: what if it’s too hard ? Most don’t want to waste a W/E getting too anxious…. This content reminds us that park builders are inclusive and make lines for everyone to progress on as they push their comfort zone forward 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Stoked you're enjoying the videos! That's why we wanted to start creating 'uncut' videos like these - to show people what these places are like

[@cb_b6833]

Absolutely love this bike park. Defo underrated and in my opinion actually better then BPW

[@dazmtb]

That was a great insight to the place so thank you. I’m off there 22nd October with a couple of mates and excited because it’s my first official jump bike park 👍🏻

[@gethappycyclingcampingoutdoors]

Nice trail, great riding from both of you, that last run was amazing. ☮️☯️

[@lemongrabloids3103]

Fun vid as always Amanda and Alex 👌🏻💕

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@ricusserfontein1086]

So lucky to hav beautifull trails like that.

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Was a really cool place - highly recommend

[@ElectricCrotchRocket]

Enjoyed this! For some reason I thought it was just full of the ‘big stuff’ Great video 👍

[@AshleyHopeMTB]

I know John Gilbert, he is such a loose rider to...so fair play for keeping up with him on that last run! it looked like so much fun man! sick video! keep up the hard work guys & stay safe!

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Yes it was!

[@TylerBoothGolf]

Nice, you’ll have to check out Coast Gravity off the Sunshine Coast in BC Canada. It’s got some big kickers & reminds me of this place.

[@wolfpack_adventures]

I went there a few years ago, absolutely love the place - can't wait to go back

[@mortenmacpherson136]

Jees really enjoying these videos would love to go somewhere else than Scotland Glentress and places along those lines and would really like to meet you someday. Keep up the good work

[@clum84]

Yep, definitely need one of these in the borders!

[@wolfpack_adventures]

How cool would it be?!

[@stevestowe1110]

Top vid guys!!!👌🏻👊🏻

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Thanks Steve, appreciate your comment :)

[@benji431976]

The wooden bridge is my favourite part 😁

[@nigelrandtoul8646]

Great vid, the best review of black mountain, perfect for anyone who hasn't been to watch before they go. Great too about belly breathing I'm gonna give that a try 👍👍. That last run is what it's all about 💪💪

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Glad you found it useful Nigel 🤟🤟

[@markjames6129]

Cosmic conscious breath 🙏💖☮️

[@th3gughy]

That place looks lush and seems reasonably close! Brilliant footage, thanks for taking us on a ride there with you! And if you guys happen to pass by Bristol ping me a message, it would be great to meet for a ride!!

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Stoked you enjoyed it 🤟 definitely will connect if we are in the Bristol area 🙏

[@brandonsunadventure]

Awesome trail man

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Glad you enjoyed it - well worth checking out if you get the chance

[@mossy.trails5289]

Nice video. Good to see someone slowing it down and taking a look around. Making my 1st trip to BMCC in April, looking forward to it. Which track is that at 12:26 please? Cheers.

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Have fun! The trail is called Berm Baby Berm

[@tommyofastora]

Yooo I love that belly breathing advice! Gonna remember that when I'm good enough to ride features that scare me ;)

[@dad_lad_mtb]

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Well worth it!!

[@anthonylau6691]

Sick riding you sent the Moto line!

[@tonyallenby7508]

[@scotty-sb1403]

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Keep at it! Repetition, repetition, repetition!

[@Ricky_graham]

Amazing

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@rupedog]

Now called 'Dirt Farm Wales' if your looking for it online

[@andreas-rb1mc]

Amazing lines🤩 do you have to pay for the up lift ?

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Yeah!

[@JIBBING_1980S]

You guy's know what That jump line is so sick..

[@wolfpack_adventures]

One of the best in the UK I'd say

[@papawhisky5794]

Time stamp?

[@seagull5368]

Even the blue seems technically challenging

[@siriosstar4789]

You guys really don't know how skilled you are because you dont have enough history/age to compare things with . i rode beach cruisers off road in the late fifties and we thought bombing down a fire trail in marin county was the ultimate in bike riding . We never ever thought the riding we see today was even possible . fortunetly i'm waaaay to old to even consider fast downhills . 😂

[@BEnji4]

Is this where last week's Matt Jones video was?

[@JMTBFLOW]

aye, looks like it mate.

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Correct

[@mtbtrack4716]

It looks like the little red flags mean a jump with gap. Isn't it? We're planning to go there to try the blues and reds with no gaps

[@wolfpack_adventures]

Correct!

[@honzamotycka297]
