"Off-Grid peels away from Melted Welly and offers a different style of blue trail. It's much tighter than the blue flow trails and offers a different style of riding. Off-Grid isn't a surfaced trail so it has a natural feel and there are exposed roots and some rough ground. Don't be fooled though, this trail is deceptively fast and fun" - Bike Park Wales
