Sherwood Pines Mtb Red Route,Jumps and Downhill Trails

[@mikeharrison1464]

Red route on an E-mtb makes it alot more interesting, hitting everything at around 20mph sure makes it alot more fun and around 33mph on the downhill route makes it a quick lap.bonus is you can shoot back up and try it again in a hurry

[@MtbTrailHub]

That sounds a lot more fun! now we're talking!!! watch out for the kids though....

[@brynbull6942]

Went pines at weekend had great fun and its right on my door step

[@MtbTrailHub]

Nice! that's what it's all about....

[@joshgaut1517]

Bryn Bull same here mate, i live in Clipstone so this is my regular, nice place to ride, there is also a good jump section in Gara woods aswell

[@trevormurfin5490]

great video.I went yesterday & had a great time! as a 47 yr old relatively new rider it gave me a good workout. i even had a go at some of the tamer jumps in the bike park. id heard it was quite tame at sherwood pines but have to say I really enjoyed it. cracking sunny day for February too👍

[@MtbTrailHub]

Thankyou, This is great stuff Trevor! this place was built for riders like yourself! Glad you had a great day out there!

[@Itsmeyaboywoody]

I'm just getting into mountain I've been here twice now I love it both times I've come home black and blue

[@MtbTrailHub]

Lee Woods Every new rider has to ride out the pain train 😁😂...... some knee pads and decent riding shoes with take you along way 👍

[@dangunning1]

I work at the centreparcs and live near by, if you're staying there you can actually bike 5 mins from the entrance (of centre parcs) and you'll be in the back end of Sherwood pines

[@MtbTrailHub]

Great little tip👍 thanks for sharing

[@adamgreenwood4520]

Wish I'd known that 😅 for the last 7 years

[@adventureswithdom5081]

Great insight and brill video for someone that wishes to visit Sherwood Pines this week, Thankyou 😊

I rode Kitchener today, mint trail

[@MtbTrailHub]

Nice one!

I watched this video about 15 times but finally I got to sherwood pines 😃

[@MtbTrailHub]

Glad your dream finally came true! i hope it lived up to the hype!

[@grumpy-dad3701]

Rode from Mansfield to Sherwood pines today with my lad. 2 rips around the blue trail. Blue is really easy. Can't imagine red being much harder.

[@bikelifewill6483]

I'd absolutely fly through that rock roll, I'd just bounce at the top and land in Nottingham

[@MtbTrailHub]

You need your own channel! We all need to see this!

[@MTB_Derbyshire]

Having ridden Sherwood Pines as my nearest trail centre for years (over 20) your review is spot on. Tame and chilled but if you attack it really hard it has a fun element. If you diverted and did the "downhill" section you probably missed the best section of the trail. Tornado alley runs parallel to the downhill section and is fun but short. I use the place as a fitness check and a "I don't feel like a peak district navigation type ride today" ride. Really though when you have the Peak District up the road it is difficult to get excited with Sherwood Pines but for beginners it is great. The shop organise a great time trial competition too 👍 Did/are you doing any Peak District riding whilst on tour?

[@MtbTrailHub]

jnadin39 Well said ..... Nothing more to add to that. The original plan was to ride in the Peak District but ended up swapping it for a day on the North York Moors..... A good excuse to go back !! 👌 Any routes you’d recommend for the peaks?

[@MTB_Derbyshire]

@@MtbTrailHub how long you got? There are tons of classic routes. Cut gate is great if the weather is dry. Any route including potato alley, the beast, lockerbrook/gore's descent and Whinstone Lee Tor around Ladybower. The Hope Valley including Jacobs ladder. Check out my videos on here or "Jonathan Nadin" on Strava and Komoot.... Loads of peak district stuff from chilled to more extreme (though my times aren't always the fastest, I try my best 😂)

[@robertsjames16]

Next time you come up north, definetly check out Peak district ,The Beast & Potato ally are fun

[@MtbTrailHub]

JAMMTB71 JAMES ROBERTS peaks are high on the list! Rode there about 3/4 years ago but the weather was nasty and the trail was pretty average .... look forward to finding the good stuff next time

[@MTB_Derbyshire]

[@philippinespaulregbruceukl7802]

[@CyclingwithRuss]

Randomly I’m going here on Saturday as a novice/amateur rider! Think this will be perfect for me to start. Might do some of the jumps as well not the steep ones though. Will put my ride on my channel. Hopefully I don’t crash like last time when I was at my local trail

[@MtbTrailHub]

ruskys adventures Aah nice , So this place will be spot on.... one thing I forgot to mention was too keep an eye out for any little side tracks..... the off piste is meant to be decent👍.

[@CyclingwithRuss]

Nice one for that! I’ll make sure to include them in my video.

[@MtbTrailHub]

I didn’t actually see any tbh but there is meant to be loads there.......

[@samb2334]

I couldn’t find the jump trail or downhill section

[@MtbTrailHub]

Another reason to go back then i suppose ! Check the map or ask anyone out on the trail and they should be able to direct you!

[@samb2334]

Mtb Trail Hub ok

[@joinjohn834]

To find it just keep following the red trail

[@johnboy8444]

Haha I'm off to lubp tomoz my local go there all time red line in woods is awesome got big jumps and nice flowy trails u can have a break at end of each bit lol 😁 then roll in to next part each section varies so just so u don't kill your self on first run cos there alot of trees just have a slow run first when u go down in woods cos up at top it open and u will be able to see what there

[@MtbTrailHub]

Johnathan Gray Thanks for the heads up, great place .... Did the filming there a few weeks back as was quite surprised at how big some of the hits are there!! 🙌🏼🤙🏼

[@KTMSparky]

Is there a map or pin to where the dirt jumps are? Will prob go for a spin when the kids are asleep 🤣 staying at centerparcs so hoping it's a short ride 👍

[@MtbTrailHub]

Haha nice, head to the on site shop and there are maps in there. I’ve heard the dirt jumps have been flattened since the filming of this but can’t guarantee that. ‘Dh’ section is still there Enjoy

[@russellparker4568]

Nice video. I wouldn’t say it’s all weather riding though. I’ve been a few times when it’s wet and that sand absolutely destroys your drivetrain in minutes, it also rides very slow. Just something to bear in mind. 🤙🏻

[@MtbTrailHub]

Thanks for the update Russell, i assumed it would be ok due to the hard base. I'll take your word for it

[@alfiecartwright9655]

I could do this on a hardtail Me: screams in *breakless BMX*

Brian O'Neill Cheers Brian 👍

[@rencho8236]

Hello. I live in Derby. What is the best way to get there? Are there any bikes for renting? Is it possible to go only for one afternoon? How long is the trail in minutes? Thanks a lot!

[@MtbTrailHub]

Hi Ren, Follow the sat nav to-Postcode: NG21 9JL. Yes you can hire bikes from Sherwood pines cycles (check out my podcast episode to hear more details from the shop owner.) Yeah one afternoon is fine although you could easily spend the day there as there is so much to do. The trail can be done in about 45 mins fast or a few hours at a leisurely pace. Hope that helps, Enjoy your ride!

[@danielwilson630]

Labelled as a red but definitely not. Perfect for a hardtail. The down hill is more of a red, but not very down hill. Good for fitness.

[@MtbTrailHub]

Well said! agreed

[@miathemalinoisgsdx1320]

@@puyuxz3636 yes it is, i agree. The flying mile parallel to the old Eakring road is awesome on a derestricted ebike or on a pedal bike being pulled along at 20mph by my dog.

I'm headed that way this Easter, from the looks of your vid it doesn't appear to be a full on 'RED' seems more Bluey compared to other places i've ridden

Yeah that’s right, very basic trail….. probably only a red due to the fitness needed to get around 👍 have a great ride!

[@daverack]

@@MtbTrailHub Thanks dude, should be great for me and my 9yr old to ride together

[@MtbTrailHub]

@@daverack perfect place for that…. They will love the dh trail section too. (I think the jumps have been bulldozed since this was filmed ? )

[@FloatyWeirdo]

Do you know any other good bike trails around nottingham and derby?

[@MtbTrailHub]

Shameless Quokka Afraid not to be honest, it’s quite flat around those parts. Your best bet would be to head toward the Peak District. Check out trail forks which will help see if there is anything in your area.....www.trailforks.com/region/nottinghamshire/?activitytype=1&z=9.4&lat=53.00458&lon=-0.94069

[@darkluke9780]

Are the jumps easy to find from the car park? And how far from it roughly?

[@MtbTrailHub]

They are located next to the marked "DH" trails. It's roughly half way around the red route. Pretty sure you could cut through fire roads to get there quicker. Best thing would be to ask in the shop for the quickest route.

[@georgeb1177]

I love pines, about a 13mile ride there from my house

[@MtbTrailHub]

Nice, Great to have trails like this on the doorstep. 13 miles there and then a lap of the red should keep you on your toes!!!

Not MTB'd in Thetford but have raced 2 nd 4 stroke enduros there, and I can confirm (as a local to S Pines) Yep, both as flat as each other.

I live local to this place and don’t bother with it. If you love your mountain biking this isn’t the place for you,no flow and full of families doing the red route it’s that easy.

[@MtbTrailHub]

Good for some and not for others, Can't help but agree. I'd imagine it's decent for winter riding and xc laps too ....

[@xvini256]

I went on the zip line there lol

[@wheremylifego3790]

Can somebody please explain to me the difference in colour of routes

[@MtbTrailHub]

Yeah ; Trails are graded on difficulty and/or length. Starts with the easiest being Green, then Blue,Red and Black being the most difficult. As for the jump/dh section at sherwood they are graded on a dot system. 1 dot easy - 3 dots hard. Hope that helps👍
