You can see my house from there!

I'm not telling, but some of that is cheeky.

I was also going to ask this, I thought some of it looked like Long Mynd, but not the part at 1:09, at a guess i'd say its somewhere on Stiperstones

First trail is on the stiperstones. We call it loop of death, dunno what locals call it. If memory serves we parked at eastridge and made a loop taking in this trail and other bits of the stiperstones.

psycorp, do you have that on strava or a gpx you can send, sounds like a good little route. Heading back to the UK in September for a wedding, will be staying in Shropshire.

Locally known as rim runner, it's cheeky but relatively well ridden.

I'm afraid I don't poonprice. I've only ridden it a couple of times and not for quite a few years.

If you have access to OS explorer maps it shouldn't be too difficult to bodge a route together though.

Yeah, that's up stipertones. I've got a loop on my strava for it, about 18months ago with eastridge linked in. My email is in my profile if you want to search on strava.

The Trailhead do shop rides in the evening.Probably the best way to find the best riding locally.

As an ex-local, anyone posting up Strava stuff should be rounded up and shot.

Anyway, I think I last rode that circa 1991. Pretty steep downhill behind it when combined with a 150mm stem and cantis 😀
