Since moving to the Isle of Wight and having access to the brilliant trails at the Isle of Wight Mountain Bike Centre I’ve been keen to try out the wooden features on trails such as Gnarnia and Hold The Line. Sadly 5 minutes out from the centre it started raining, and anyone who has ridden wooden features will know that this is not a good cobination! So, with renewed plans we hit Phumf To Barb to see if we could complete it without crashing for once, only for Bob got a hole in his tyre. Better luck next time eh?!
Rest assured, in between the sections of ‘guff’ you’ll see plenty of trail centre action, the odd crash, some product reviews and no doubt an injury or two! My local trail centre is the Isle of Wight MTB Centre and we have an abundance of great mtb routes on the Isle of Wight with fantastic views..

Anyone else scared of damp skinnies?!
Not to bad if they are covered with chicken wire. But better to be safe mate
They don’t scare me cos I don’t even try them.😊. Just following you down is enough for me. “Can’t hear any screaming” 😂😂What you do on the MTB is pretty intense so a few miles on those tracks is pretty demanding, so all good cardio. All the best😊😊
I bet this was cracking when it was first built!
i wanna get this white t160 s on offer to get into mtb but i dont have enough money lol
I was up there Saturday and I recognise the weather conditions 😂. I think we just left as you showed up. Did you come later on in the day?
