The Drift

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Great little track for a mountain bike or gravel bike, very muddy in the winter but still passable. Can get a bit busy with dog walkers especially in the spring and summer.

Dip and Dash Segment

Highlight • Climb

Short but fast and swooping descent and climb. Hit it hard coming southbound into Castle Bytham and stay in the big ring to power up the gradient past the village sign.
