MacRetro chat and rides thread

Re:

I was at Comrie last Friday. The blue is fast and swoopy and good fun. The red is probably the most technically difficult red I've ridden. Very rocky with some steep chutes. Also some smooth rock slabs. I lost the front turning on a flat rock slab and went doon. No damage done. I had a dabble with some of the black but to be honest after 3 years of virtually no mountain biking it was beyond my skill and confidence level.
Lack of fitness was also an issue. The climb up the hill took it out me.
But a very enjoyable day.
Arms and shoulders were aching the next day

I should add that compared to other trail centres I thought there were parts of the blue that would have been red elsewhere and similarly red that would be black at other more well known centres
