A bone rattling experience as you descend from South Hessary Tor. Fantastic views overlooking Burrator Reservoir however this is an incredibly bumpy ride!

As you descend the rocky trail back toward Burrator, you're not only treated to a fantasticly bumpy ride, but the most amazing view South West too.

My first experience on the Boneshaker was an eye opener. Filled to the brim with loose stones and rocks i did second guess my decision at first, but once I got over my initial hesitance, i started to have alot of fun. Arms, legs and suspension working overtime on this track, which after a few miles drops you back to the Northern edge of Burrator.

If you want to test your mtb and what it can do, I highly recommend.
