This vid just shows me how badly I know the area. I ride it fairly regularly and didn't recognise half the stuff.

They are all mainly bridle ways, honestly - a few diversions, but not most of the video.

Lovely video. My favourite trails are all in there - Limestone Link, Mendip Magic, middle line of Xmas Trees.... One thing though - where is the Perch?

Looks like it's dried out very nicely.

I rode some of the same bridleways in March and everything on Blackdown was still very rutted from the previous 9 months worth of rain and use, although Rowberrow was fine, if a little rocky in places.

Must get up there soon.

Good choice of music BTW.

Ah, I got it. Strava has a use after all.

Mendip Magic is one of my favourites. I can't do most of the jumps though 😆

I don't know any of the trail names tbh (except Xmas trees as that is obvious).

I just refer to them as "the on that bit by that bend/climb/etc etc"

Would be good to see a plot of them all on a satellite image with the names to make it easier to know what people are talking about!
