They’re a bugger those [/img]‘s…

That’ll be all the mountain bike based erosion.

What tyres for…….

AAH!!!

Cheers Khani , i Give up 😳

At least the mud has gone, could be a decent descent soon

In the image links on photobucket use the bottom IMG code and just copy and paste it straight in,
don’t bother with the IMG button on the toolbar…

Damn that water erosion!

Climable!

why is that man walking?

i would be too

Cheers Khani , it works at last 😆 You’ve no idea how long i’ve been trying to do that.

Looks like a fun descent. Not sure why climbing it.

Closed Bridleway

looks open to me.

Obviously OP is a trail centre rider pusher then.

edit: Shout too loud and the council will turn into this:

nbt posted some pics a while ago of that trail, the recent storms wrecked it.

Looks like a fun descent. Not sure why climbing it.

I’ll try and find the thread with the pics on it, some of those ruts are headset deep!

Looks like fun going the other direction. 🙂

Here we go…

What walks up, must fun down??? 😉

that damage happened in one storm, overnight. the council took a day to pass a temporary closure order, I did hear they’d started work but that must have just been at the bottom end near aspenshaw hall. it’ll be done to the usual low standard and fail again pretty soon I reckon

Where abouts in thornsett is it?

I live just down the road

up the hill from aspenshaw hall – meets the track from wethercotes to rowarth

It really isn’t safe to ride down.
As usual the photo doesn’t do justice to the gradient.

You’re right there bunnyhop . There are some nasty surprises , not just the ones on the photos .

Define “safe” ?? 😉

give that another 20 years of erosion and some time to mature and it’ll start to look like a Westcountry bridleway..

similar things happening in hebden too….
