About White's Level
Very technical progressive riding trail with sections sponsored by npower. It has drops, step downs and long singletrack climbs. “Energy” is the most recent addition to the world-renowned Afan 110k Mtn BikeTrails within Afan Forest Park. While the new section takes the name Energy from its proximity to npower renewables’ Ffynnon Oer wind farm, it demands energy, technical skill and daring from bike riders, making it a most exciting addition to the trails.
NB: Please consult 'Mountain Biking Trail Guide' before starting this trail to make sure this trail is right for your level of experience and fitness.
