There is no doubt that Egypt is a wild and uncompromising track. It is one of the most technically challenging Downhill Tracks in the UK. Its root strewn path twists its way through the forest, down steep gradients, over rocks plummeting toward the silver river Tamar. Egypt is the preserve of the enthusiast, a gauntlet thrown down to those who think they can ride any track at speed. It will only give itself up fully to the devoted, but once mastered it is a purists dream and certainly a goal worth persuing
