I'm from the Derbyshire Dales, but I've been doing some work in Guisborough and the wooded hillsides look tasty. As do the hills that backdrop the area, which I presume is the edge of the North Yorks Moors.

What's the riding like?

My bro lives up that way and Ive ridden ther couple of times
signed trails in guisborogh woods (Its a singletracton site sponsored by Pace) was ok from what I rmember but not signed the best
few DH and jump spots nearby too (Ayton etc)
some info on moredirt or google guisborough mtb for the local club website (or pop into the bike shop in town – bikescene?)
also not that far to Dalby

There's some great riding in the woods and out onto the moor, the marked stuff's a bit pants though, you have to know where to look. I may be out for a couple of hours on Sunday if your around, alternatively, check this out; http://mtbguisborough.ning.com/
