I was out recently and discovered a quite incredible riding spot.
It was full of downhill lines, good jumps and sculpted corners, all set in an isolated valley.
I won't say exactly where, but I accessed it from Frant and came out near Eridge. Could anyone here private message me if they think they know where I mean (i can send you a google maps link of the location) and also what the access/permissions are for the spot?

cheers

Jim

Sounds interesting!

Good work for not announcing the location there as places get messed up so quick by that sort of thing  Wink

Welcome btw.

Na we've said that to Jim. He knows the R really well.

Having spoken to someone at the R the other day it turns out that the DH trails Jim is talking about are on public land and therefore rideable. You just need to check in with the guys there. The DJ's are on private land and a different matter.

I drive through Frant to work & have seen a few DH/FR riders on the pavement. I have an Idea where it might start.
