From open rocky tracks through to narrow gulllies, north Wales has it all!
As with all of our UK tours, the use of one of our motorcycles, all protective armour, clothing, fuel and third party motorcycle insurance is provided as standard along with the company of one of our friendly, experienced guides.
We can also offer you exclusive use of our guide should you or your party of friends not wish to be mixed in with people unknown to you - this costs just £50 extra flat fee per day.
What does the day include?
The meeting point for this tour is The Hand Hotel in Llangollen The day begins around 9.15am where you will be kitted out, introduced to the motorcycles and given a briefing about what to expect during the course of the day as well as a chat about safety - we pride ourselves on giving all of our clients a day to remember in a safe, friendly atmosphere! Once everyone is happy to proceed the tour will begin. You should be on the bikes by 9.45am and there will be as many stops along the way as you require to catch your breath and take in the views. Don't forget your camera! Lunch is normally around 1pm for an hour before you head off again aiming for a 4.30pm finish. Please be aware that finishing times are approximate and you could well be back a bit later depending on progress!
What sort of terrain will we encounter?
The trails in this part f the counrtyare simply fantastic. You will be transversing deep rutted sections, rock climbs, water crossings, narrow gullies, rock laiden descents and much more. We also have a great play area early on in the tour for customers to get a good feel for the bikes before progressing on to more difficult lanes. Because of the wide variety of lanes in this area we try to tailor the routes to the groups ability. If you do not want to be mixed in with other groups of differing abilities we would highly recommend using our Exclusive Guide option.
Will I receive tuition?
We do not run our trail tours as a school, but our guides are always on hand to give helpful and friendly advice and show you how to tackle certain objectives. We want you to get the most possible out of your tour with us and to gain confidence during the day so any questions or tips that you would like answered will be greeted with enthusiasm. You will be suprised just how much your road riding will improve after a day on the dirt with us! At the end of the day we want you to come back for more - perhaps on one of our other tours - even in Spain!
What type of motorcycle will I be riding?
The weapon of choice for our Welsh tours is the Yamaha WR250 enduro spec motorcycle although from time to time we may supply something equivalent. You will find this bike the best compromise between power and rideability on the lanes of Wales.
Is there any accommodation in the area?
The Hand Hotel is very convenient for our north Wales tour. The rooms are quite basic but comfortable enough. Breakfast is excellent - eat as much as you like! The establishment also has a large bar and restaurant. There are lots of other hotels in Llangollen easily found on the internet.
Is there anything else that I should know?
We would advise that you bring along some warm underclothing, lightweight waterproofs and a dry towel if the weather is looking bleak! It is also useful to carry a rucksack with a bottle of water and a small amount of money for lunch.
None of our tours are to be treated like an enduro race and we ask all clients to respect the environments in which we ride for the benefit of future riders.
