Big PORC trail improvements.Hey guys, i know we all have about as much faith in PORC and its management as we do in Apollo making a decent bike, but was down there last sat with some mates and the quarry has basically been re built, looking and riding very nice, the 4x has had massive improvements by a sponsered DH rider who is allowed to dig there, and the DH is getting there.
Anyone been down recently/ any opinions on this?

Good to hear about the improvements 
The new race series is well done with new section springing up for each round. Well organised too. Maybe still sufferes from the 'multiple courses crossing over' problem when there isn't a race scheduled.
There is one this Sunday which should be good!

Yeah man there IS a LOT of f*****s at PORC, but its that kinda place, as long as you cna ride relatively well, your alright. i just stay away from anyone i dont know down there lol. Most of 'em seem like right arrogant b******s if im brutally honest.
And im not sure about the price, as im under 18 im still only paying £2.50, and i thought i remember the sign saying £5 for overs still, but im not 100% on that one.

Dude, Went up there yesterday and its still cr*ppy, cr*ppy, cr*ppy!! Digging some form of drainage, so theres a 2ft wide ditch running across the 4x and down the hill into the quarry. Quarry's been re-dug and is full of some smart DG's but all BMX'y super steep, close together.
Everything else is in its normally state of disrepair.
Everytime I head up there I think there are so many other better places I could be riding!
