Black Rocks Mountain Biking - Matlock

We travelled up to Matlock to go mountain biking in a little-known wooded hillside known as Black Rocks.
Whilst it is essentially one big hill, there were dozens of lines to choose from. We also met up with some friendly local guys who took us all the way up to the trig point to ride some local sections.
Highly recommend checking it out!
I'll add a blog at some point on www.originalcyclist.co.uk with more details.

I’ve ridden a few of these trails and can totally relate to the carnage of everyone falling off and sliding down the steep hills 😂

[@OriginalCyclist]

Yeah I wasn’t expecting that kind of steepness!

When I look at others riding that rock drop I can't believe I crashed so bad last year. Nearly took me out the game permo breaking my neck, thankfully all good now, . Great vid and riding. It highlights the ace techy stuff at BR but the chunky sections can just kill the pace and then gravity just does its thing 🤣

[@OriginalCyclist]

Oooooh sounds bad! Thanks for the comment 🙌

[@MTB_Derbyshire]

@@OriginalCyclist it was a little problematic for a while 🤣

[@dougbikesnlifts]

[@OriginalCyclist]

Not massively. Few drops, plenty of fun though!
