After climbing Tan Hill on the road and then a wide gravel road descent, turning onto this trail is pretty funny! If it's wet, you'll probably fall off about 10 times like we did between the 5 of us...

It can be rutted and slippery, with overgrown grass meaning you can't really see the line either, a good test of your bike skills.

Halfway down it becomes clearer, and you can whizz down into Beckhampton.

Great views up on top, great decent until the field! Fell off twice, nice little ruts and overgrown rape seed. Still its only a mile or so long, enjoy.
