Vote Now! Best UK Riding Destination – Singletrack World Awards 2023

Crikey. I’ve only visited one of the top 5 MTB destinations in GB.

What have I been playing at all these years…
🙄

Expect a strongly worded email from DMBinS for not including the Tweed Valley 😀

You could certainly argue there’s only one destination there: Dyfi valley.

Fod is a probably best described as a single location, but as for the rest,

Whinlatter – North Lakes
Tarland – Aberdeenshire
Fort Bill – Highlands

If framed in the context of their wider location, and therefore a ‘destination’, you get a different picture. For example Im going to the highlands in a couple of weeks. I may or may not ride Nevis range time dependent, but I will still be there abouts.

Is behind the Nationwide in Swindon ever going to get a nomination…..?

Can I be a pedant and point out that some of the best riding in the FOD is actually in Wales.

I would like to vote but as a registered free member it does not work.

Nevis range.

A bit narrow really. Try 70% of Scotland 😆

Back from the Dyfi Valley yesterday.   For scale, solitude and variety, you can’t beat it.

Having only ridden at two of those places, and one a decade ago, I am going to abstain from voting.

I do get to visit a third of the places in a weeks time though.

Tweed Valley obviously

I’ve only ridden in two of these areas so not qualified to answer

That’s nowt compared to Tarland mate.
