I've ridden lots around Parkamoor, (was there yesterday in fact) but never down that track through the woods you took, which I look forward to giving a go in the future.
That's were I remember them from so maybe I know you? If you rode on Saturday with Simon Barnes, maybe not, if you rode on Sunday then probably because I did Sunday rides for about 10 years
@mtbnorthwestengland Oh yes, I did the Saturday rides, Sunday rides & some Wednesday evening 'Southern Softies' rides, too. I never see any rides posted on the members Facebook page nowadays...☹️
@@EddInLancs01 We had a phase of posting Wed rides every week for a year or so but we didn't get any takers so found it a waste of time and effort. Bogtrotters is a distant memory unfortunately and will never return to its former self. Pre COVID I put a few big Sunday rides up but only managed to get 1 person out on 1 so also gave that up. Was thinking to give it another try the next couple of months with new people you never know but the weather is against getting people out
Depends if you want to do the silly stuff on Coniston fells on a good day or you could come down Walna Scar from the top instead of going higher and then add in something else quite easily
I’ll like to try going high as I’ve not yet ridden over Old Man. Might be a challenge getting me, my fatness & my ruddy heavy eMTB up, but I’m used to a bit of hike-a-biking

What an epic day out. Looks a great loop.
Cracker mate, a bit of everything on this 👍
I look forward to trying this variation on a Coniston theme route. Cheers
No worries, enjoy. They have sanitised the hell out of what was the great flowy descent which we did call Rock and Roll bringing you out of Nibthwaite
Great video 📹!
Glad you enjoyed it 🤙
Epic ride this one Mate!
Cheers pal 👍🏼
Looks an epic day
Yep glutton for punishment doing the last climb 👍
I remember most of those trails from many Bogtrotters rides!

@@mtbnorthwestenglandBogtrotters seems to be more of a weekend campervan closed clique these days...
cheeky v in the rain and dark 😅
Far too easy in dry daylight hours 😂
I had meant to do this route earlier in the year but might now have to wait for a sunny winter day or until spring '25, I reckon
