Are The Whinlatter Forest MTB Trails For You? - Location Check 

We’re excited to release our next location check and this one is a two part extravaganza. We headed to the stunning Lake District in the North West of England to ride some spots we’d never ventured to before.
In part one of this location check we head to the Lake District’s best trail centre, Whinlatter Forest. The centre has been there for a few years now but it’s an exciting place where the trails still offer riders a huge amount and they continue to maintain and invest in the facilities there.
We catch up with Cyclewise owner Craig and are lucky enough to speak with Adrien Jones from Forestry England. We’ll be sharing a separate video in the future after a very insightful discussion here. We can’t thank them enough for their time and warm welcome.
We’d love to hear what you think to this location check and where else we should check out.
