Depends what you want to do. Its flat, fast and fun. Not a whiff of technical for a Cannock Lad, but you can always play in the downhill and jumps sections ( if you can move for lucozade bottles). The Kitchener trail is what you make of it. It's all singletrack apart from a brief fire road section. The majority of it is hardpack, smooth with some bermed corners, and can be dull if you ride it slow. It's a great place for families and novices, but not for a cautious improver; it isn't challenging enough , but set off with the intention of absolutely pinning it and you'll have a great time. Enough pedalling to test your fitness, and twists and turns to test your poise and handling. Take your rigid and you'll have a ball, or take a hardtail and run your fork hard and taut. It's short enough to do twice even with a play on the dirt jumps and downhill park. Use it to discover how well you can corner, and just exactly where your tyres will let go. Busy at weekends, so look out for families on supermarket bikes riding the wrong way ( bitter voice of experience!)
