Ride sensibly and stick to the established paths = Responsible access (IMO).
Yeah I suppose that’s reasonable. It’s too much to expect people not to go to the plateau at all so if you’re going, stick to the ‘main routes’. The trouble is, does anyone know what responsible access is these days? Seems to mean different things to different people. I’d like to see the mountain bike magazines talk about responsible access if they’re going to give us details about routes through such areas aswell. Anyway! Have fun and watch out for the critters.
TJ- Thanks for the link, I think I might have commented on that thread myself. I used to be much more of a conservation nazi but it’s tricky with the new access laws.
