Dartmoor Gravel Ride Tavistock Princetown Sheep Tor | Cycling Up Devon Hills | Drakes Trail 

Nice ride Mike and Julie very well done, Julie certainly got her monies worth of yee haa's in that long tunnel. Good effort on the climbs. Have yourselves a great weekend.

Great ride folks I'll have to find some new ground for you to discover next time you are down.

I’ve been meaning to ride that trail from Princetown to the reservoir for ages, will have to do it soon. Thanks for the reminder! Always nice to do a lap of the reservoir as it’s flat….. unlike the rest of Dartmoor.

That was great! Although parts of it looked more like trail running than bike riding! Exciting stuff.

Cool video! I'm doing this route tomorrow very exciting! Well done on thoes hills!

Great video team but Please O Please it can only be cream first in Devon. 😀

I think Julie could've got a few more Yeehaws in that tunnel. Jam first.

Lovely ride - my home turf! I actually manage the land around the reservoirs here and Burrator is a reasonably healthy 48%. It’s the big one down here in Cornwall that I ride around (Colliford) that’s really in dire straits at 17%, there’s some pretty strange things starting to appear as the water drops. You can wade across it now! I do love that bridge - it was never there when I was growing up in Tavi, we had to go down the valley and up the other side 😮‍💨. Super vid as always.

Boy that was tough and sometimes dangerous ride ,your a pair of hardy ones .you’d be fit to come Fermanagh and take part in the lakeland gravel grinder

Ah now, which is more dangerous, sheep or cows? Sheep I've discovered can headbutt you in the plums with unerring accuracy (and I was only trying to help the damned thing as it got its head stuck in a fence...) , but mooeys have murder in mind and do kill people now and then as you mentioned Mike. Most dangerous of the lot though are flipping white van drivers as Julie discovered - Nice response though Julie 😁 My nearest reservoir (Stithians) is now around 15% capacity I believe so we need rain desperately this winter or next summer we're in big trouble. Plus the hosepipe ban makes bike washing a pain in the backside! Fantastic ride that - Dartmoor has some superb walks, drives and bike rides, with some of the tracks having real ancient history to them, including the (apparently) haunted corpse or coffin trails. The history of some of these tracks, trails, bridleways and byways can be fascinating. Oh hello... full suss e-bikes on the shopping list eh? Was the bike you nearly bought in the Helston Giant dealer a full suss e-bike then? 🧐😁 Nothing wrong with e-bikes of any flavour in my book, had a go on a couple myself and they are an absolute hoot! Good video!

Adventure indeed. And those hills, eek. It is nice scenery though.

All the open country is impressive. Pretty gnarly trail in some parts but you guys conquered as usual. Now I'm hungry for some mutton chops!

Bostin ride fair Play Wheeler’s 👍👍👍😎 What was the name of that van again 🤣🤣🤣👍

Would’ve ticked but for two reasons. 1. Editing was ‘sketchy’….as someone who has walked most of the trail you cycled, I found myself almost getting dizzy with how you jumped back and forth along the Burrator to Princetown disused railway track, especially in between Kings Tor,Swelltor Quarry and Ingra Tor (??). 2. As a proud Devonian (and you were in Devon)…it’s always cream first! Apart from that….it was alright.😂 P.S I did tick the like really 👍🏻

lol 14:39 🙂

Good riding . That van was a prat but they cant wait lol. I go out early just so dont get run over i shouldn't have to tho .

Standard to baa back at a sheep 🐑

Wow lovely ride although Imywith Julies on part of that too technical if you’re like me a 🐓 Wow some hills but the views so worth it. Julie said a bad word 🙉😂 stupid van driver.
