What kind of riding do you enjoy??

I think I was just having a bad day .... My mate made up for it though .... Is there anything funnier than someone new to riding spuds and forgetting to unclip ??

Mine's up on the Pennines and at Hamsterley Forest (my old 'home area'), mixture of most things, singletrack, hairy descents, open fire roads, twisty pine tree and needle strewn trails, old mine tracks, moorlands, all sorts.

Shame London's so shit for riding!

I enjoy the opposite of you: plenty of single track, weaving between trees, ditches, and rooty, technical trails with nice climbs and descents.

+ another! also really enjoy a big ride in the peak/lake districts.

smooth fast flowing dry singletrack.....preferably with a slight downhill gradient!

+1 here. That's the only way to ride offroad!

Unfortunately all my ATBs are in bits at the mo so I have to ride on the road using my Giant Bowery.

I enjoy all sorts these days, although the road is where I discovered enjoyment with cycling, I've been off road more this winter.

I enjoy the challenge of this - don't mind mud actually but I'm probably most at ease with a mix of terrain including some fireroads and bridleways as I haven't got to grips with anythng very technical yet!

And yes, Daj the FOD is a bit of a mudbath at the moment!

country back roads, bridal paths, aint no singletrack 'round 'ere

the Camel trail in Cornwall is a good example:

Fast, long with a brilliant pub/ beer/ ice cream stop at the end.

Be warned! Its fast towards Padstow becuase there is a slight incline. This gets you on the way back as the beer/ food takes its toll...

I'd have to agree, although I don't mind if it is bumpy, I think the key word is "Flowing". I love it when trails are joined up and flow, allowing me to keep on peddling without lots of sudden stops or gear changes.

Same here - plus exploring to find potential new routes to clear and where bridges etc might need to be constructed.
