The tracks would be ok for inexperienced people. Some 8 year old kid rode down it all day on his BMX, so it can't be to hard. There are plenty of b lines.

from ftf website.

does this mean if you want to ride, no coaching, it is only between 1.30 and 4.30? or ride at the same times as the coaching is on.
