Does anyone have (and can share) a gpx of a route which avoids the private land bits please?
Er, all of the descents are on private land AFAIK, so thats a bit of a contradiction in terms im afraid. The transfers between stages are often legal BWs, though.
What are you trying to do?
Looking for a good 15-20 mile ride in the area and was hoping that someone with local savvy could advise if there was a modified BB route that was accessible. Or I suppose, recommend something else nearby.
Any help or suggestions appreciated

This will take you around the same area and it's a nice xc loop, but it's nothing like riding the actual stages.

Kilburn is close by and has some superb trails, not a big area and steep climbs but definitely worth a days riding
Thanks guys
I.agree, the paradise trail is a good loop and is very similar to the bash loop, without the enduro descents.
There’s some fairly steep bits in boltby woods pretty close the paradise cafe and the other side at silton can be fun if damp
There are no amazing off-piste trails in Boltby. None at all.
As above though, the stages are off-limits and puts the event at risk.
