Cheers mate! I'm not familiar with the slayer drop, sorry? The big ones I know are the caveman drop and that huge cliff one but never done either.

Are these tracks still there? They look pretty good.

Yeah it's called coombs wood above armathwaite in the Eden valley. They're on trailforks though. Great set of trails!

Il stop off on the way home from work one evening to take a look. I’m trying to find 2 tracks to train on. 1)very technical track (dh/enduro) and 2) high speed with jumps/berms(dh/enduro )etc. atm, hamsterley appears to be the best place but I’m hoping to find some local tracks to Shap. Thanks.

I would say coombs is a pretty chill but fun spot. If your after jumps berms then go to setmurthy (outside cockermouth) and from trailforks do setters jumpline, main line and things like roots are slightly more techy. For tech and steeps the best you'll get is like whinlatter off pistes and dent around here but down south lakes is good too. I haven't been to descend bike park in ages but it was amazing so definitely want to return!

For local trails you don't have many options. Between me and you there's some secret stuff above Penrith on beacon hill and coombs wood but you really need to drive

I stopped at coomb woods on Wednesday after work. Didn’t have a lot of time to explore it all but I saw 5 tracks (from armathwaite side of woods) and they look good. Some look a bit steep but rideable once I’m up to speed on a bike again. The soil is almost completely sand I noticed on some tracks so finding grip on the steeper sections may be a challenge at first. Thanks again for your help and advice. Il go hamsterley again a few more times to try to get up to speed and used to the new bike.

There's not much in terms of beginners In the lakes. I would start out at whinlatter and do the blue route then maybe the red route if that's okay. Other good official routes for beginners are I'm Dumfries... AE and mabie forest. Look them up on Google followed by mountain biking and there's tonnes of info. Have a great time shredding the trails mate!
