Aston Hill mountain bike trails offer the beginnner through to the advanced downhiller a great play park to cut your teeth or hone your skills further on. There are five graded Downhill runs, a 4X track and challenging 5 mile cross-country loop. Located on the Chiltern Hills ( Bucks/ Herts border) it is also acccesible from London. Originally born from the hard work of Ian Warby and crew it is now run by the passionate Aston Hill club who continue to go from strength to strength and invest in new trail development, organise demo days and races.

There is a car park and a decent food van around most of the time and of course the all necessary portaloo. It has recently had some significant developments with the new Surface To Air Track and plans are also underway for the top of park to incorporate a new path to the DH trail start, a pump track, new top for S2A/Black/Root/XC and a total reconfiguration of fencing and signs to make everything even more accessible.

IBIKERide are offering you the opportunity to win a £100 in cash. To enter the competition all you need to do is write a short review on the site and your review will be entered into a prize draw. All reviews get entered but clearly the more reviews you write the more chance you have of winning. You have until the end of May (when we announce the winner) to build up your chances of winning so get riding and get reviewing :)

So be it your local trail you want to help get on the map or just a trail you have visited and loved (or hated) then get in there and share your experience. You can review as many trails as you like but you can only leave one review per trail. Also reviews on any Accommodation, Coach, Guide, Bike Hire or Shop listings are also valid for entry.

To get started just find the trails you have ridden, places, you have stayed, guides or coaches you have used and so on and leave your reviews. Good Luck!
