Yep I agree the Q's are rubbish I get so bored I fall off up there out of sheer boredom.
Aw bless........................
OP needs to get specific on what sort of trails he wants to ride.
As stated tech for one is easy for another, like wise easy for one could be classed as tech by somebody else.
The Quantocks like other riding locations have areas more technical than others, from steep, rooty off camber, steep loose stoney trails, or technical climbs.
The chimney and even the trail myself and Jambo cleared to make a path is deemed technical by some.
It's a very grey area, i've been asked whilst guiding to show riders some technical trails and once at them, told "Not that (insert expletive) technical..
Another way to make a Tox trail Technical is to follow a reckless local, what would normally be a smooth easy trail at a speed you're comfortable with, becomes a battle of control, etc.
I'm not around to assist on this one, as i'm on Dartmoor getting some alpine exposure in the cleeve.
Enjoy!
Not riding tonight then Partyboy ??? ๐
knottie8 That is an Awesome picture of the most complete compact riding area I have rode. never gets boring IMHO
frog combe the roots and the wet S bend are tech at speed ๐
and Smiths is well just Smiths
๐ฏ
sweet baby jesus geoff1, that is quick.
Did I say technical? I meant to say challenging ๐
No-one has said that the Quantocks are rubbish and that is good enough for me. It all looks good and certainly fast enough for us novices. I will post back our finding.
Thanks for sharing, all of you!
Geoff - that's almost Sharki speed. The upper reaches of Smith's remains my favourite way of scaring myself on a bike.
sweet baby jesus geoff1, that is quick.
That's when it starts getting fun and technical...
Warp factor Gurn ๐
I was out tonight and checked out Frog Combe (I haven't ridden it for ages) while I was over that way, and to me the North side of the combe is much more interesting (nice 18 inch wide singletrack) but everyone to their own I suppose.
mmm, skinny frog combe.
almost worth listening to ballroom blitz again...
just for you dibbs...

see, i thought I knew the quantocks pretty well but I don't recognise that last descent on dwights first video at all.
Definitely on the Quantocks ๐
Clue is - towards the Dibble House missing out Lyd Hill Car Park. 
For some reason likes costing me at least one inner tube on every decent ๐ฏ
