I normally ride in the Peak, Dales, Lakes, etc, and whilst I really like their rocky bridleways, those hills seem to be getting higher with each passing year

Any suggestions for other areas to visit this year, with smaller hills? Or interesting flat stuff?

Thetford in the dry can be quite a laugh, absolutely pan flat, but incredibly fast and miles of very swoopy singletrack.

Delamere is a great fun couple of hour Singlespeed blast, if you like woody singletrack..

Thanks, guys! I already love Rivi, and am trying to get the hang of Delamere. Thetford sounds very interesting for a weekend away, I'll look at the OS map.

We rode Minton Batch (Long Mynd) last summer, and I was surprised to find it strangely unsatisfying. We don't have much smooth singletrack up north!

Ha! Ha!

Brilliant!

Thetford for the win.

Cheers

If you're ever Daan Saaf, drop people on here a line (including me).
We'll show you some cracking woodland riding.
