After the success of the previous challenge (I found both runs last weekend, directions were spot on so thanks to all who responded)....
Anyone know where this run starts ?

Hello again.

I know where that is, zoom in on the A here: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?client=safari&rls=en&q=strawberry+hill+ponds+epping&oe=UTF-8&redir_esc=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&sa=N&tab=wl

You see Strawberry HIll Ponds? well, with that on your right you head towards and across "Earls Path" (actually a road). As you go across the road you'll see the barrier at the beginning of the vid. Take the immediate right into the singletrack - it heads down parallell to Earls path and spills you out on Staples road.

Going a bit slow those boys, tricked me into thinking its longer than is really is - although it is steeper than it looks on the vid.

Actually if you drag the StreetView guy onto earls path at the crossing/blank area where you cross the road you can see the barrier in question....
