I've recently moved to Launceston and I'm looking for any advice on good routes around Bodmin Moor (or guide book recommendations). Thanks in advance for help.
Not heard of there being much up on the moor, try asking some of the Exeter/Dartmoor guys.
Not so sure about Bodmin Moor itself but plenty within half hour's drive. Minions apparently is nice. Crispybacon from this forum lives near you (near Kit Hill where he rides a bit) and will doubtless be along soon to offer advice/rides. My mrs rides with couple of lasses from callington/liskeard and they seem to be quite busy. If you are at all gnar, i strongly suggest you join Woodland Riders and ride at Tavistock Woodlands estate and Gawton: it has done my rad skillz no end of good.
[EDIT] Crispybacon is like the candyman; say his name and a couple of riding spots on the forum and out he pops! *waves* 😀
I've ridden up on Bodmin Moor (Caradon Hill & Sharp Tor) with the [url= http://www.cornwallmtb.kk5.org/ ][b]Cornwall MTB Club[/b] [/url] they are a friendly bunch & ride all over Cornwall - see the meet sheet.
A few pics from a recent Bodmin Moor ride

Lol - Thanks for the big build up Julian 😆

a tinbothering pastyfarian friend of mine swears by exploring the coastal areas and clifftops for a wild and eclectic MTB experience
Dunmere area is good and there are trails on the moor - just needs a bit of OS mappery. Welcome to Cornwall!
Thanks all, I'll get out there and hope to see some of you.
See you at some of the races? Quite a few this summer including the mightily funny south west xc champs and the Bontrager 24/12
Sweet login name btw. In my head, you are some sort of west coast type in a ragged vest top checking out your own 'guns'. 😆 Please don't let me down!
