What a hard ride today , lots of uphill but plenty of fast down too .
More pics here http://s1107.photobucket.com/albums/h392/knottie/Just%20out%20with%20my%20mates/a%20lyd%20hill%20start/

Looks like a grand day out…

All those deer explains why there are so many ticks on the Quantocks (AKA ‘Ticktocks’).

yay an old favourite returns.

i’ve missed your quantocks ride (pics) threads

Had my first (hopefully of many) quantocks ride today. Went from Holford – found an awesome run from Bicknoller Post down to Lady’s Edge (though obviously no secret). Great ride in all though. Where else is good on the ‘tocks?

“Today’s ride (pics)….comments”: aww, it’s like 2009 again – good to see posting again knottie 8)

Looks good up there today…I’m heading over there tomorrow with my superfastracingsnakemate who will probably tear me apart on the climbs AND the decents….excellent.

Petestuart – weacombe, frogcombe, somerton combe, slaughterhouse, take your pick of any of the inviting trails from the ridge and let go of the brakes…….

Like rexated said there’s loads to choose from just look out for all the lovely walkers there seems to be up there lately. Just hoping it stays dry for my early morning ride tomorrow

My advise would be hitch up with a local guide .
Weacombe combe is a must do though.

Five lords/Bin combe is my favourite descent at the moment. Covered in leaves at the moment so difficult to follow the line down though.

glad to see you’re keeping the cake quotient up mate. 😀
looks lovely up there. been too long.

Good pics don’t know how I missed those deer
Must have had my head down trying to climb that hill.
Thanks for letting me tag along with you guys
I had an excellent day and the trails through the woods from the cattle grid were a brilliant finish
Hope your son went well on his first ride out
It was great to meet you and I’ll be in touch when I visit next time
Thanks again

**** me, that’s a good looking cream tea…proper artery clogging amount of clotted cream. Droool…

What the deuce…the swear filter doesn’t like ‘f e c k’! Even priests are allowed to say f e c k…
