Flyup 417 Project

Had been looking forward to getting on the 417 Project in Cheltenham for over a year.......was very disappointed.

Firstly the price for adults and kids is the same £33 each for a days uplift, now you can argu that a seat is a seat but you would normally get a small discount.

Secondly nothing is finished, only three runs are ready and one can only be used by what I would guess to being the top 1% riders in the country.

Blue run, easy to roll down but it's been made way too narrow to get any real speed and improve your skills.

Red run, I thought this was a fun run but it struggles to flow with the rocks and the start of the track is in terrible order

Black run, was so difficult and not possible to ride around obstacles, for pros only

The description of the runs above was confirmed by several people there.

Now for the biggest downer of the day, the pick up service was done by 3 rovers, the trailers were poor and bike wheel sizes would only fit in certain areas and it took up to 20 minutes waiting to get to the top.

Now the biggie, the service only takes you part way to the top, you have to push up mud about 150 m's this semmed to annoy everyone.

Once all the runs are built the £33 might be wirth it but right now go elsewhere
