If you want a new trail, go to Lancing Leisure centre and go up to the right of it and follow it all the way up and round and you can find a path that’ll take you directly into steyning. Very sweet trail and plenty of views.
@@themuddycyclist, it has but it's frustrating, as you've probably noticed, not as many are watching youtube at the moment and we're obviously restricted to where we can get out and make content, still a great feeling though, thanks mate 👍
Nice video. We are lucky living so close to the South Downs, but finding new, interesting routes can be a challenge; It's a bit of a maze up there so the temptation is to stick to the routes you know.
great video, wonderful trails. Would cycling the entire south Downs on a bike with no suspension (gravel bike with 45mm tyres) be possible, or should I get a hardtail ?
I would suggest a hardtail, do see people on the SDW with gravel bikes, but to do the entire length with no suspension would be very uncomfortable in my opinion.
Another pleasant ride in da sunshine 😃 wondering what tyre pressure u use . I use inner tubes , and have always had around 40psi f and b , I think cause I get less punctures and better rolling was the original reason in time gone buy. But I had a big crash during a muddy february and a mtb guy said way too much psi go down to 35 psi. Ive since tried 32 psi f and back after a bit of web research .been pleasantly surprised with 32psi but I got a puncture on second ride 🤣👍
hi just new to mtb going to be mtb ing south downs is it a waste of money to buy a top end front suss or poinless top end would be 900 any help would be appreciated
My suggestion would be a hardtail, most of the riding around the South Downs doesn’t warrant a full suss. However a full suss would be more comfortable but it’s not an upgrade I’d want to pay for. Good luck 👍
@@themuddycyclist Thanks for reply muddy cyclist thats what i thought . Il just get suss at front of mtb do you think a top end price front suss is a waste of money for that terrain ie not big rocks or drops heavy impacts and such or would one of around 400 be sufficient not sure what you use or if youve tried medium and high price suss maybe more expensive would last longer if well looked after and cheaper is a false economy . frame is stanton sherpa gen 3

Brilliant, thanks 🙏
Great video mate, i do love your editing style, cracking ride, scenery, shots, angles, music, keep it up, you'll be at 1k in no time 👍
Thanks buddy, got a while to catch you up! How is it in the 1000 club, given you a new enthusiasm?

It really is! I'm having to push myself to try different routes, which isn't easy as think I know most of them. Thanks for watching.

Hi great videos, I am taking on the 100 miler on a 29er,what tyres do you recommend, tubed or tubeless, regards, Phil
Thanks 👍, without doubt tubeless, no regrets despite my recent tyre wall tear
@@themuddycyclist further to that, what model, ie, knobbly/slick? Regards
Knobbly or slick will depend on the terrain you are doing? As for the brand, I use Maxxis.
Nice one
Thanks 🙏
another good video plus i do like that thumbnail ... hopefully we will get out soon !!!!
Can't wait, want to try out your drone!
Nice video dude, at least you can still go out and is priceless
Yeah thanks, appreciate we can still ride in the UK.
Another great video. I'm just beginning to explore the south downs a bit more on my gravel bike. Looking forward to linking up some good routes.
Sounds good, haven't taken my gravel bike onto the South Downs Way yet. Think I need to change the tyres first.
The Muddy Cyclist I only have a gravel bike at the moment. Watching these videos has me wondering if I need a mountain bike too.
You can’t have too many bikes 😉

Tubeless is just about the best upgrade you can get, mega cheap and virtually eliminates punctures. Go for it 👍🏻
@@billbalding3705 thanks Bill will give em a go 👍 cheers
Totally agree with Bill, going tubeless should be your number 1 upgrade. I run my tyres are around 30 psi.
@@themuddycyclist thanks :)
I'm currently longer than a year and it's still doing it's job when I get punctures, when it doesn't I'll top up 🤷♂️
You're the longest so far. I'm about on a year, but have ordered some more sealant so will be sorting this soon I hope.

@@joshusanders3127 Get the best bike you can afford, but below £400 will probably not last long if you use it regularly.

No problem 👍
