Don't do the full red Tony!!! Park at the grove, then head straight up to Poltys and do all 5 trails, from there go up to Section 13 etc then up to Pikes Teeth and after 2 wheels it spits you out ready for an easy roll to the car. All thriller, no filler!! You can of course start at the visitors centre but then you have to do the Grove Link to get all the way back
I'm sure there are other more exciting routes to link up the best fed sections along with blacks, and that may be a video for the future. However this was just to show the full red route. I fancy doing the blacks next time I go
I've met many people at the top of Poltys complaining about the long slog to get there following the red route, and that long climb up the horrible hill to Danny Harts was the main reason I got a ebike in the first place! Next time you go have a look at the skills loop (if its open), Pikes Teeth and Route 666 are definitely black routes, but the Grove Link is a nice cruise to start or finish your ride. Good to see you doing the bombhole on Special K. It took me months to build up to that, and now it's the only way I go!
Yes it's a slog up to the top of Danny's climb. I could do it in boost, but stick to trail mode for a bit of a workout 😃 The only black I've ridden was Boneshaker, which wasn't too bad. Yeah first time riding the Bombhole. Looks worse than it is, like you I will always ride it now

Another good video though, I enjoy your content and can definitely relate to your style of riding!!
Many thanks Bob. If you ever fancy a ride out somewhere give me a shout
My step dad was talking about going down here to do the bike routes or whatever you call them, do you know which is easiest?
There is a blue route, which would be the easiest
