We're camping near Pentewan over Easter, worth taking the MTB's or is it more roady territory?

Also the clay trials are worth a blast, not exactly technical but certainly hilly and lots of interesting stuff to see . There are miles and miles of little lanes too, some of which would be considered more mtb than road (maybe CX would be perfect)

Cardinham is great for a blast, and Lanhydrock meant to be good too.

Cheers chaps. Don't want to be driving anywhere to ride, so maybe light off-roady's it is.

You can ride in Kings Wood & there are a few downhill runs to find, link it up with a ride into St Awful & pick up the clay trails to Eden ๐Ÿ™‚ PS you could cough* ride the SW Coastal path* cough to Par & back but I wouldn't condone such shenanigans ๐Ÿ˜‰
