It shouldn’t be. If you can afford several thousand pounds to buy an emtb , then you should be able to afford the parking fee which goes to help run and maintain the forest, not into someone’s pocket.
I’m on holiday so can’t do this one but I went on one a few years ago and it was a good day...
Too late .. I showed the video to the camp of friendly ‘travellers’ who are parked a few miles away…… they are on the way, should be there tomorrow. Happy to help.
Wet and windy ride on the High Peak trail and the Tissington trail. Both reclaimed old railway lines in Derbyshire . All gravel so a bit boring but wonderful scenery and you get a real sense of the graft that went into building the lines back in the day
