I live in the southwest so most of my riding is Haldon, Lanhydrock, Cardinham with a smattering of Plym Bridge and Cann Woods.
Have also managed to get to FoD a couple of times (thanks work) and have tried Sherwood pines once (thanks work again)
Steed is a Calibre Bossnut with a few upgrades 🙂

😆 @ perchy

No but he heard a lot of tutting noises outside the café while looking for something in the boot of the car.

Welcome OP, which Audi or T5 variant do you have? and are you in user support or back office systems?

Uhhh..... bollocks joke I missed?!?!?

Neither @garage-dweller, just a plain old Scenic for me.
However, due to having a work van, I can put the bike in the back when I am working away so I get to go somewhere for a play if I manage to get time 😀

And neither again, I'm a hairy a$$ed electromechanical fitter...

Should've gone with Tucker first. 😳

I'm going down to St Ives for 2 weeks on Saturday, Op could you suggest any nice areas to explore on 2 wheels, cheeky or otherwise. I will be out early in the morning.

Would love to jekkyl but I haven't been that far down (St Ives is 2hrs for me). Also haven't been riding 'properly' for very long.
Haldon (Exeter) on the way down if you need a fix, or with a slight detour Cardinham (Bodmin) is pretty good considering its a blue (with 2 red options). Afraid I don't ride road either so no help on that front.

Loads on the Moors as well but I haven't found any of it yet!

I'm just back....

Go here. The extremely nice old lady who runs it is called Yvonne.

I wouldn't bother with the bike unless it's a road bike.

Jekkyl, Poldice Valley is always good for a laugh and its quite easy to find the trails there. A cheeky coastal path ride is worth it if you get out early enough, Chapel Porth/Aggy Beacon is a good section.

I'm sure there's plenty around if you know where to look.
