Re: UK terrain like the Tour Divide?
don't know about TD terrain, but one of the best rides I have done was a weeks tour in Scotland, based on riding as many loch side tracks as possible. most seem to have a landrover track up one side of them. Loch Lyon and Loch Ericht were fantastic, and adding Glen Tilt and the Gaich made for a stun...

Detailed maps of Brittany?
are there any detailed, like our O/S maps, for Brittany?
going touring there for 2 weeks in may. last time I went, I rode a offroad audax from Pontivy on cracking sunken lanes and GR routes. someone told me that the whole of Brittany is covered in these type of tracks.

Re: Anyone else a member of the RSF?
yes, i am. been a member since 1985. and the ctc for my sins......
my 1st proper offroad ride was with the wakefield section of ctc, a circuit of Cutgate and Strines on my uncles old carlton corsair, in 1984.
a love of mud, pain and exploring seems to have stuck.

Re: Anyone have just a cx bike no mtb?
recently somehow ended up with a cannondale cx bike........riding it offroad on anything remotely rough was terrible. shaken to bloody bits.
a nice light xc mtb is perfect for the 1 bike. something like a Cube 29 Ltd. light as a road bike, and takes a 2.3 tyre for offroad.
