Alan McWilliams

E-MTB rider based in Western Crete, documenting off-road routes across mountain, rural, and historic terrain.

Routes are personally ridden and field-verified, recorded with GPX data, clear grading, terrain notes, and surface accuracy. The emphasis is on rideability, access, and realistic conditions rather than headline distance or speed.
Many routes follow older paths, resistance landscapes, battlefield ground, and working rural or sacred sites. Historical context is included only where it arises directly from the ground being ridden, with attention to place-names and land use over time.


Off-road riding in Crete involves linking existing tracks, older paths, and rural access routes with short road sections, reflecting the absence of a way-marked E-MTB trail network and the terrain’s settlement-based structure.

The Day Greece Said No From the Mountains of Epirus to the Battle of Crete28 October 2026 — The 86th Anniversary

Every year, on 28 October, the blue and white flag of Greece appears across Crete. It hangs from balconies and village houses, above shopfronts and public buildings, and along the streets where schoolchildren assemble for the annual parades. Church bells ring, wreaths are laid at memorials, and communities gather to…

The Descent and the Twenty-Seven Bends

The way down lay in full view and told us almost nothing. It was only a pale thread scratched across the limestone, appearing on one shoulder of the mountain and vanishing behind the next. Far below, the Frangokastello plain spread beside the Libyan Sea, green and geometrical where the high…

The Wells at Kefalas

There are places I have ridden through so many times that I have stopped really looking at them. Kefalas is one of them.

On this morning's ride I stopped in the village square beside the church, where a small group of old wells sits among the stone paving and trees.…
