Hi there, how did you find hollinsclugh on the Xt, I've not been brave enough apart from on me enduro down there. I have don three shires which wasn't bad and only other not tried is tenterhill if you have how did you find that.

Just for the record if you don't no tenterhill is under an attempt to closure so be worth goin on site and filling dispute form in

Hi Hopper, i didnt do the extreme Hollinsclough just the medium spice one. Was ok though feet up most of tje way down. We didnt do tenterhill as the ktm breakdown eat up a lot of our time. We did monsall head over too brush fields that was ok once past the slick limestome section. Objection allready logged on tenterhill also.

Mark id have too do some serious arse kissing for the missus too let me.go too the pyrenees. Ill try though haha.

And Jo if you ever wanted too make.a weekend of it we could do any lanes you want. Its not so far 😀

as for the open spaces mark im sure ill manage. Remember flat and sandy 😉

Hi Jon
Looks like 2017 is going to be fun, will have to recce a route a lot of the lanes I use are restricted between October and April , a lot of beasties come out after dark in the fen !!
Keep the Pyrenees in mind and start kissing now you never know?

Jo , your quite welcome to try out the fens with us when I manage to sort and anyone else who fancies it. Take Jon up on his offer if you can you'll have a great day .

All the best Mark

I'm considering it!..extreme hollinsclough sounds interesting, I quite like taking my trusty steed into tough situations!..

Interesting it is. Ive never ridden it on the Tenere. I wouldnt it doesnt have the ground clearance. Most of the steps are in excess of 12" tall with some as high as 2ft"

Ill happily show you too the top ot bottom though. Walk you down it.

First you will need one of these.

You will be using it alot.

This is the tough section of medium spice Hollinsclough that we rode the other day.



Its rideable if you are confident whilst stood on the pegs. Its also lots of fun

Im not saying its impossible, because im not that way inclined

If i ever get there and there and the rocks aren't slick with mud and water, and i am no longer reliant on the Tenere as the household transport and shopping pickerupper and takemetoworker, I may be tempted hehe ;-)

Hi Jon660z, thanks for the reply

I don't think I'd fancy hollinsclough steps at all as could be some breakages,
good to hear you've done the tenterhill objection but brushfields is also on hotlist, I have done that on the Xt but only down hill

Do you regularly get to the peaks as could mayb meet up and ave a run about. Peaks is on my doorstep really so could possibly show you a ride or mayb by sounds of it you no more than me or do you regularly ride sum where else and wouldn't mind taking a few of us out?

Cheers kev

Should be fine if your names Lampkin and you have a trials bike.

Hi Kev, im always up for a meet up for a bit off the rough stuff.
My main stomping grounds are between Stalybridge and Barnsley as you can put a good 8 hr ride together with lots of lanes around there. As diffucult or easy as you like. but i rIde in the dales and North Yorkshire moors, North Wales as well.

If you ever want me too take you out gimme a shout. I dont mind travelling and if you have a look here at pics from my previous ride out in dales

I know a bit of the peaks but more so up towards castleton and hope. If your ever heading out drop me a PM and ill tag along /show you what bits i know.

Hollinsclough would be an incredible challenge on the Ten. But your right there would ve some breakages i think........ Still not impossible though. ;-)
