Hi mate,

One place i found, which you may already know about, but I thought I would let you know anyway is the North Face Trail.

http://www.moredirt.co.uk/trail_info.php?id=21

There does not appear to many marked trails in Cumbria, but i bet there is some awesome bridleways to be found, best bet is to get an OS map of your area. What type of riding are you looking for?

yea setmurthy is a great place to ride, just outside of cockermouth.

If you cant be bothered to go somewhere pre-built then find a decent enough forest and get building Wink at least thats what me and my mates are in the process of doing.

Or of course, pick a fell and take a run down, thatd be really fun.

Endless possibilities Big Grin

I may sound like a dunce (and I took geography lol), is Cumbria the Lake District? If it is then the staveley loops has some some natural DH.
