UK Equivalent of my Beloved Farkin

I've moved to Scotland recently and I'm trying to find an equivalent to Farkin to look for place to ride and bikes to buy.

There seems to be a lot of small but shitty cycling forums that come up on google, is there anything as encompassing as this forum that anyone knows of? (oz has Farkin, US has Ridemonkey, uk has...)

Cheers

Loads of sites there but this is prob the most popular.
Its a bit more uptight and politically correct than round here.
Dont even consider any C or F bombs!
It has a very high traffic though and you can easily spend many hours in there.

Enjoy Scottish mountain biking. It makes anything in this country pale in comparison.

Where in Scotland are you?

There are lot of local forums to each region. Also, many bike shops, but not all are much happier to help over there. It's a completely different MTB culture, one of the best in the world.

If you see hills, there will be trails, and they will be legal.

Enjoy it.

Cheers Hugor, Singletrack seems a fairly busy site, even if they could use some sub headings (seriously looking through the classifieds is painful

RIO looks like a reasonable site as well.

Waldog I'm in Aberdeen mate, pillaging the north sea, that sort of thing.
