The TRF didn't repair it themselves
The contractors employed by Yorkshire Dales NPA repaired it
GLASS, North Yorkshire TRF and Yorkshire Dales NPA joined together to fund it

Ok
Got it
I helped raise the funds for it - by running a couple of trail riding events with other club members
Partnership with the National Park is the way forward

Yep we are grading all the Dales trails to remove the nasty tricky bits
This will make them too boring to ride
People will think they are not worth doing then

this is indeed true!!
I have noticed recently that the local councils in Wales are grading parts of some really good trails.
.. they are much easier to ride now .. .. and not really worth the bother.
