Mountain Biking Eagles Cragg on your feet not on the seat
Mountain biking in East Lancashire from Hurstwood over to the fishery at Cliviger.
Camera normally set on super view but it defaulted to wide, I'm not that keen on this setting plus it was a wet misty grey day and keeping the lens clean, which for me is bad enough at the best of times, was so difficult.
The ride as always was a good one and Cookie loved it when he saw the two deer jumping a fence. Until the next on my friends Adieu adieu adieu, oh and remember "On the feet not on the seat" 😀

      Come out of Hurstwood at the top metal bridleway gate, turned immediate right up to and across Cant Clough, dropped down to Sheddon clough and through the stream. Climbed up to Long Causeway (we took the fork to the left that then comes on the long causeway carpark. From there straight across and through the bridleway gate on the opposite side of the long causeway and kept going straight till eventually you get to the gate that takes you across Black scout Moor (in the vid o think I call it just Scout Moor) right across the moor and it comes out at the top of Havok. Straight across the top and follow the trail down until eventually you drop to the right and a small wooden gate takes you down some steep cobbles and eventually onto Tod Road. All the way back to the Ram Inn. Mahoosive climb out from opposite The Ram, back to long causeway and just retrace rout back down to Sheddon and up to elephant hills/man test
