    Skyline is finished. What a shame. After reading the article about it in the current MBUK I attempted to ride it all today. Its completely shit. The diversions are everywhere and mostly lead you to long mudpits churned up by dirt bikes. The little singletrack that is left is few and way too far between. [...]

    Just read in MBUK that skyline is closing in Autumn to build another wind farm.
    There are a few diversions for the Wall in place now as well as Whites.
    Bugger!
    :(

    yeh did that descent the other day for the first time because of the detours. Its a cracker! I hope it doesn’t degrade now that there will be heaps more traffic on it. Wish I discovered it earlier.

    I’ve been using crank brother pedals for years. I love them. I’ve never had issued getting out of them when I needed to, however crankbrothers pedals come with plastic shims. Some mtb shoes need shims beneath the cleat to jack out the space a little, or they can get quite sticky and become hard to [...]

    4 damn walkers on the Goodwood board walks today just after one of the bermed bends.

    I’m new to the UK and have not done skyline yet. I’ve seen the signs at the top of the long white’s climb.
    Is the rest of the trail signposted all the way back to the shop again?
    I’ve read that there are diversions in place. Do they direct you back to the trail after the detour?

    They are a friendly bunch and the site gets more traffic than here.
    Just a suggestion.

    Thats a real shame. Loved that long rocky road to the bottom of the gap. Real classic.
    If they’ve smoothened it out there will be heaps more walkers on it.

    Rode the Wall today. It is starting to show some signs of overuse. With all the other trails in the area closing it was bound to happen. What is this July trail mentioned above?

    is skyline open these days?
    I’m also interested in the OP.

    Thanks for the info Chris. I’m also keen to explore the alps. Any advice on some of the less vertical back country stuff / tours. I love the epic rides along similar lines to the Beacons classics etc and don’t really need near death experiences to have a good day out. I ride with my [...]

    There is a detour about 3 – 4 kms after Castle Coch though, very shortly after it crosses the highway.
    This is due to road work on the trail. I’ve not found the trail again after this point.
    Anybody know if this section is finished yet?
