I must admit to also using my bags and or panier rack (with a plastic bag placed on top) as an alternative to the mudguard to 'prevent' the dodgy looking mud strip...
Rusty. As I do, are you just scouring OS mapping for possible new routes, some that will work out and some that won't , or are you using a different method. Additionally, do you use Bing satellite imagery - or something else? Thx.
Hey, I usually go into komoot and look for potential areas with trails and look for comments, then look at satellite images and strava heatmaps to see if anyone else goes there. Then I just get out there and give it a bash. My routes are usually a result of my seeing a single track or trail that I want to ride and then trying to make a circuit out of it as best I can.
I admire your tenacity

Brave in January on a gravel bike! I’m local and have done the route on gravel and mtb. Tough but fantastic either way
Great ride - did it yesterday in the sun ,enjoy the coffee
Thank you sir! Appreciate the support. Glad you got some sun.
Well done for keeping such a positive attitude at the top of the hill when the trail vanished.... I'd have been SO depressed 😂
Those turbines sounded pretty ferocious!

Love your videos. You put me to shame as I'm local to a lot of these and never done any of them. I'm not a fan of hills 😁
Haha! I always think the hills look fun when I plan, but very soon regret my choices once I go out and ride them!
