(* with apologies to Sanny)

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 ๐Ÿ˜•

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!

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.
