Dav1d Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Hi, 'Ive been out of the trials scene for a while and just bought a new bike. Was wondering if anyone still rides in the Torbay area or near anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 There's a group of us from Plymouth that ride here and Dartmoor pretty much every weekend. Check the Southwest trials group on facebook, rides are pretty much always posted on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dav1d Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Thank you for that, I have requested access to the group. Do you mainly ride street or natural trials? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Bit of both... Usually a fair few plymouth street rides in evenings, and dartmoor natural at weekends. There are a couple of spots in Torquay i believe, but only ever ridden Hopes Nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24martin Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 there is a group of us who all live in brixham that ride the torbay area regularly, normally if the weather is a bit crap we will stay in brixham, but if its nice weather.. there is quite a few spots that we ride in paignton and torquay mainly around the sefront! also would any of the dartmoor riders in this thread mind sharing the names of some good spots to ride up there? a few of us from brixham went up to hound tor last weekend and its the first time that any of us had been to dartmoor with the trials bikes (i've only ever been up the moors 2 other times and it was without the bikes and everything was coated in like 2 foot of snow), but yea basicly when we got up there to ride, most of us struggled to find anything easy or safe to warm-up on at hound tor and most of the lines that we found were either huge or sketchy lol! i am still really keen to go back to the moors again a.s.a.p and everyone else still wants to go back, but i said i would come on here first and try and find out the best places to ride up there, so any spots that you guys can recommend i would be really gratefull! shame i don't really do facebook because that Southwest trials group sounds pretty cool!

craigjames Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 Hound Tor and Bone Hill are the main one's people ride, but there are loads of smaller ones that are a good ride too. I only got back onto facebook for the Southwest trials group, there is always a ride being posted up there. Would mean you be able to see where were all riding and tag along if you wish. Much easier to find spots if someone shows you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
