My first Mountain Bike tour on Komoot and first ride in years… not quite as brave or fast 😂 as the pros Rob and Kell showing me the ropes but loved it!

January 18, 2022,Mtb around Ashton court Nova/Super Nova

My first time in Bristol with a mountain bike and we tried out this sweet little city mtb spot! Ride Bristol have done a cracking job in putting this together. Such a great trail with some nice flow bits and fun berms. From the experienced cyclist to newbie this trail has something to offer for both and in-between.
