Great place isn't it ,there is a lot more there too if you know where to look ,if you join The Rides group and come along when we next pop a Watchwood ride on 👍
Strangely edited video. You could easily get the impression that it's a 30 mile downhill. Done this route and it certainly does have some tough climbs!
Hi there. Great channel 👍. I live not far from Osmotherley and I would love to have a go at this circular route. Can I just ask you where you started from?
another nice vid👍 love Rosedale! I couldn't work out where you went after the lion? I would normally go towards westerdsle and rudland rigg or fryup to the cycle hub! looks like you went east? could you post the route please😊
Thanks Davo Yes the singletrack across the moors starts (signposted as a bridleway) about 3-400m on the right (east) after the Lion Inn It’s another route taken from Pedalnorth: pedalnorth.com/rosedale-ramble/
@@MTBLou yes I know that bit that cuts the corner off onto knott road, it's year since I did the off road bit to the east of Rosedale! Last time I was there it was an absolute bog fest! I noticed the single-track just disappears to nothing in places! Lol. What's the battery life like on the orbea? What's the biggest ride you've done in mileage and climbing?
@@david1519 sorry I was logged in as MTB Lou then by mistake, it’s me Tubby replying 😆 I’m a heavy guy and not as fit as I could be. That ride was around 22 miles and 2000ft elevation and I still had around 30% battery left, rode most of it in Eco. Louise is much lighter and fitter, rode it in trail and had 50% battery left In general I’d say you’d easily get 25-30 miles depending on fitness and modes used. I have a full fat Bosch powered full suss too with a 625W battery but much prefer riding the Rise
@@TubbyMTB I've got a specialized kenevo expert and I managed 36 miles and 3000 ft of climbing last week in the Scottish Highlands! The bike is a tank! Lol, like a DH rig with a motor!. Would be nice to try something that rides lighter without compromising on range.
I'm enjoying this channel because it's my kind of riding in the area I love! Plus it's nice to see someone else's route which is a bit different to mine. I noticed rudland Rigg but there were some bits that I didn't recognise, any chance of a link to this route please?
Glad you’re enjoying it Davo, we like riding the moors in dry & sunny conditions for the views and sense of ‘freedom’ ! It’s another Pedalnorth route: pedalnorth.com/rudland-rigg-2/ The climb up Rudland Rigg was quite techy, otherwise it’s all simple bridleways and a fair bit of country lanes
@@david1519 Yes, exactly there. A bridleway route through a few gates and then you come to the gated junction where walkers take the Cleveland Way towards Osmo, that’s where the descent starts. We were lucky to have it free of walkers, it’s usually much busier. I’ll post the route, hang on …
Thanks, I’ve only been riding a few months, accidents are all part of it when you push yourself abit too much, I had a couple of weeks rest due to injury but all good now & back on the bike.
Yes. On a sunny day Sutton Bank has some of the finest views in Yorkshire. It’s an easy XC trail with a couple of steep climbs and a nice red downhill section. The blue downhill is fun too
