    Rode up the road and up to Will's Neck yesterday – it was surprisingly rideable:

    Thinking of heading out tomorrow – does anyone know if the road from Crowcombe to Over Stowey is passable in a 2wd?

    Pics from yesterday…

    Comments?

    So was that your tyre marks i saw heading from Beacon hill partially towards longstone?

    They seemed to stop suddenly and i couldn't work out were the rider and bike went…back down to Bicknoller post i think..

    Not sure what the road is like over there..it's in the shade so i expect a little slippery given the steepness.

    Is that at sunset? i was down at the post at around 4pm..

    Sharki – I didn't make it as far as Beacon hill – the pic is of the trig on top of Will's Neck (ahem). Was hoping to head that way tomorrow, but not sure where to park as of yet…

    A little bit of drift

    It'll be dark in a bit and i don't know how log it'll take me to get down..

    Trying to get to the dog pound..enter the trees and it's just matter of staying in the tyre ruts from a 4×4.

    I haven't attempted Crowcombe yet this week, I've been driving to Hinkley via Taunton – Bridgwater or via Williton.

    Thanks for the info Dibbs…

    Great pics Sharki – love the sunset one – looks a bit later in the day that mine (I think I left the top a bit before 4)

    Meeting a couple of people at DWD at 10:00 this morning for a spin (probably park at Crowcombe if the road is not passable) if anyone was thinking of doing nothing all day! 😀
