Winds reached 96 MPH (154 km/h), knocking out power for millions and causing widespread damage. Dyfi Bike Park was closed during Darragh, with some tracks remaining closed for rebuilding and repair."
"One area of the Dyfi Forest was utterly devastated. Tower trees now looked like spilled toothpicks, splintered and jagged across the forest floor. While many would see the area as a complete lost cause, Gee Atherton saw an opportunity. His new film, Windfell, documents the storm's aftermath, the build, and riding the new line. As usual, anything from Gee is a must-watch."
Storm Darragh struck the UK and Wales on December 6–7, 2024, producing winds up to 96 MPH (154 km/h) that cut power for millions and inflicted widespread damage. Dyfi Bike Park closed during the storm and several tracks remain shut for rebuilding and repair. One portion of Dyfi Forest was utterly devastated, with tower trees splintered and strewn like spilled toothpicks across the forest floor. Gee Atherton identified an opportunity in the wreckage and led efforts to build a new mountain-bike line through the damaged area. The project culminated in Windfell, a film that documents the storm’s aftermath, the rebuild, and riding the new line.
