    I should start by defining what Sniggle is. It is an MTB term that was invented to distinguish between open flowing singletrack and tight snotty singles. Sniggle is the tight stuff that is not an overgrown fire road or old logging trail but a hand cut single carved into dense bush.
    A good example of an overgrown fireroad that has turned back into a singletrack is this.

    Today I rode about 50k’s with some local crew of which half was Sniggle!
    They have crafted some of the most amazing trails I have ever ridden. Dark dense singles with a mix of creek beds, deep V Gullies and even a wild strand of Bamboo which was bizarre to ride through. It was an awesome arvo on the bike and the boys said there is plenty more out there. Most the entries to the trails are concealed and once on them they run through incredible terrain.
    I obviously can’t say where it is, as after 5 minutes I was lost, but it was as much fun as anything I have ever ridden!

    Epic!!

    Lantana Man is just a rookie compared to these guys. Both those clips I posted are old footage but shows the difference in trail style. I will get some footage next time I ride yesterdays trails.
