Haha, My local trails are 90% woods so its ace to get out and about into the open countryside. Plus the Peak is only a 45 mins drive from me so its pretty spot on.

Found 2 steep trails, something above just black/very difficult...
(like double black diamond)

My local, sounds like you had fun on the offpiste!

It was great fun mate but some of the riders I was with are quite new to the sport as you can tell haha they got a shock, the go pro doesn’t do the steeps justice

 

[yorkshire89]

Yeah foxgloves trail (from 4:00) has some pretty steep tight turns, add in a bit of grease and it's quite tricky to make it down in one piece!
Dalby is great though, has a huge network of hidden gems!

Yeah mate we only scraped the surface I’ll be going back and get them ticked off for sure, the second to last trail with the drops was my favourite I think

 

[VWsurfbum]

I need to get to Dalby, Never been!!! (its a fair old drive from here) but don't want to go, do an XC loop and miss all the good stuff.

There are loads of great off piste trails there mate, I think @yorkshire89 will be the best to advise you, but I only touched the surface mate lots there

Let me know when you're heading up and I'll try show you the best bits if you want a bit of a guide round.
If you're staying over for a weekend also check out Kilburn (white horse), some of the best trails in North Yorks!

It’s a small world isn’t it haha most of my rides are with Andy tbh, he gave me the interest to video everything, love it now great to look back at

 

[Mikerb]

The lower the Gopro is mounted the more steep inclines or ascents have the correct perspective.

Haha those tracks are all my regular rides If not mistaken I think you might have gone the wrong way a few times and had to backtrack ? Unless it was intentional!
You were right on the edge of my favourite ( crown edge ).
That track down to little mill is fun yeah it's usually way more wet and slippy than that in your vid.
Did you see the Epitaph and painted rocks for Charlie on your 1st climb ?
Good vid nice seeing others riding the tracks I'm home to.

It was my first time on that route and as far as I know we did the correct way. I was with some Penistone guys who do it regularly.
Maybe my gpx will give you a better idea.
Sorry but never noticed the epitaph.
Glad you like the video
Heading off to Staveley now for the wheelbase demo day.
