Top video. I have always found Surrey hills tricky to plan routes for, good to see some trails to help I the planning. A part 2 definitely gets my vote! thanks
This is the recipe, but unfortunately no fix for the poor mobile signal in the woods. Can’t wait to visit and discover all of Surrey Hills. Great videos BTW.
I basically live there most weekends, as others have said you probably didn’t pick the best trails or ride the trails in a good order (I ten to pick a hill side and do three trails before moving on to the next hill (of which theres over 40 odd if you know where to look). While peaslake is where everyone heads there is so much more further afield.
Yeah it takes a while to get the place figured out. I wanted to ride some of the stuff that isn't always ridden but some of it isn't ridden much for a reason! hahaa Looking forward to sessioning Leith Hill next time!
@@MtbTrailHub you have the official trail summer lighting, but there isn’t loads of other trails (there is a rabbit run of slow technical trails that are fun for something different).
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost the login password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Axl Parker Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out now. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@@MtbTrailHub There are a few videos on RU-vid, but for the most part they’re low-res and pretty dated. There are also some unmarked and secret jump lines / trails up there, but folks like to keep them that way!
Useful vid cheers. Be good to chapter up the trails so people can jump to a particular trail if needed. You just need to add the timestamps and title for each section in the description and will create the chapters.
Thanks, The whole parking situation is a bit of a shit show at weekends tbh. Key is to get there early or arrive late afternoon when people are leaving. Car parks and climbing trail info can be found on trailforks too.
Lots more formal trails to review. Not sure you picked the right ones in this video. Thinking lovely legs, bo selecta, red ring/two headed dog, secret Santa etc. Then there are the other areas in the hills near Swindon!!!!!
Noted! Yeah for sure, In all honesty i don't know the area that well so was just mostly picking off trailforks at random. I've ridden a few of those mentioned but wanted to try a few that not everybody rides too.
Great vid and couldn't agree more. Love Northern Monkey for the jumps and Roller Coaster was a real let down! Love surrey hills and thanks for the videos!!!
Trailforks was made for Surrey Hills! haha, You were lucky to find your way back to the carpark! That happened to me a few years back, got lost and couldn't find the carpark.....added about 10 miles onto my ride! haha
Look at a map, if you're capable of getting fully lost somewhere where you'll be at a road in 10 minutes almost anywhere, you shouldn't be allowed out on your own.
Nice video of the trails there, like you mentioned some you really had to work on but others gave quite a bit back. Was thinking looks a great place for an ebike then you said perfect for ebikes or 140 travel bikes 👍🏼 you taking the ebike on the next visit? Nice video
Hahaa, yeah theres some pretty flattish but fun trails. (some steep too) EBike all day around there as it can be quite spread out. Yeah i borrowed my girlfriends but i think it will be the last ride on it. Don't want to trash her bike too much! hahaa
Both! It really depends which area of trails you want to ride really. If you are visiting at the weekend then be sure to get there early otherwise they will both be packed!
Not pitch, pretty sure it's Winterfold? Search for it on trail forks too. There is also a trail called lovely legs which is near Charlie Bronson which is worth a look.
Hi, Not sure exact address but its called Peaslake car park.easy to find if typed into google maps. If you're planning to go at the weekend then be sure to get there early. Enjoy
That would be the last thing Id want for the hills although I’ve got to disagree with you I’m afraid. There’s nothing in this video that isn’t out there already. Surrey hills is getting more and more popular because it’s such a good place to ride. Not because of a video documenting public trails.
@@MtbTrailHub Just because things are out there doesn’t make them right and further distributing adds to the problem. If you really felt that way you wouldn’t of posted these videos for your personal gain. The Hills are on private land and maintained by locals who don’t get paid. It’s not a trail centre, more and more trails are getting closed down. The Hills are there to be explored, get lost in and talk to people.
Apps like Strava and Trailforks are causing many natural trails to close. I've mountain biked for over 30 years and I have never seen so many lovely trails in the SE of England been blocked off and closed as in the last year. Some of my favourite trails that I've ridden for decades, never been overused, get published with a 5* rating, droves of mountain bikers start turning up churning up the trails, building jumps and burns, leaving rubbish behind, and terrorising the walkers. The landowner puts up signs "This is private land, Please do not build ramps, cut trees, and please give way to walkers etc" But is ignored and Next thing the landowner cuts down many large trees blocking the whole trail making it un-rideable. And I heard so many complaints and worries from walkers about the Surry hills, it's just a question of when many trails get closed not if, and if one OAP gets injured or worse by a high speed mounting biker, then the END the Surrey hills!
