I often pass an FP sign when driving over to the next village, it's about 200 yds up the road from where I normally turn off the tarmac and take a double track climb up the hill to the spot known locally as Shooters Nab..
Today I thought i'd take a look at this other option.
Initial look was not promising (for going up), as I was pondering a 'hike a bike' to confirm this suspision, the farmer approached, nice guy - he looked at me and simply stated 'it'd be better coming down' (told you he was a nice guy...), a quick Q and he also confirmed that where I thought it might end up on the hill was right, so, off I toddled to the double track climb with hope in my heart...
This is what I found

Need to dig the map out but i'd say it about a mile to a mike and a half drop of about 500 ft
'scuse rubbish phone pick and it is, o'course, steeper than it looks...
No sign of recent activity on foot or bike, think we need to change that
