This MTB route leading off from Rivi, cycling on as many off road trails as possible
before arriving at Ryal Fold for lunch and then heading back to the start point. It isn't
an entirely circular route but not far off.
Although there are no technical sections on this MTB ride, there are a couple of
notable climbs that you need to be aware of and the distance is longer than your
typical ride so you will need to have a decent level of stamina.
There will be either a pub stop at the Royal or a cafe stop at Vaughns at approx 10
miles in.
As always on a HRS ride, no helmet, no ride. Please be self sufficient and ensure
you have all the equipment you would need for your OWN bike for any trailside
repair and ensure your emergency contact noted on the lets ride site is aware of your
whereabouts on this day (in case you need to be collected). Please wear/carry
appropriate clothing ALWAYS carry a waterproof, no matter what the forecast tells
you and several snacks and liquid refreshments.
