		He goes on to say; “Cwmcarn has the potential to be fantastic.
		What will make it exceptional however, is the luck of the soil composition of the area, which means it will remain rideable, in a good condition all year round.
		The Cwmcarn trails are scheduled to open in April 2002, but the more manpower he gets, the sooner the trails will be ready, so he`s appealing for volunteers to come and learn the fine art of trail building.

	Cwmcarn DH seeks uplift - BIKEmagic Rides news
		The recently-opened Y Mynydd Mojo downhill track at Cwmcarn is a blast, but one of the drawbacks of a nearly-2km course with 250m of vertical drop is that it's inevitably a fair way to the top.
		It wants to hear from a suitably qualified operator to run an uplift service for mountain bikers - a minibus and trailer or similar to take riders and their bikes up the hill to the start of the downhill trail.
		The route will follow Cwmcarn Forest Drive, so there will also be an opportunity to provide a service to other visitors who want to gain access to Twmbarlwm Mountain or other areas of the Forest Drive.

	Cwmcarn Mountain Bike Trail
		Cwmcarn is only half an hour from Bristol and it's a great ride.
		After a couple of hundred yards of double-track descending look for a wooden V shaped barrier on the left, leading on to a snaky open singletrack where you’ll ricochet off numerous tree stumps on a gradual descent back towards the road.
		The spice to many of these is the disconcerting drop at the edge, on this fast trail you ride six feet above a minor road which either slows you down or is way up in the dangerous sports league.

		But before the sweet delights of the desert trolley, comes the three-week old steak that is the first climb.
