The Hunt For Bunton Hush | Yorkshire Dales Mountain Biking

[@TrailTrackerSwitzerland]

Interesting to see some riding from a part of the UK that I don't know at all. I shall be back for more. Keep up the good work!

[@RockGullyMTB]

Thanks mate 😁 It's a fantastic area for awesome trails

[@Pozitivi]

Cool video mate :) keep riding and having fun :)

[@RockGullyMTB]

Thanks man 👍

[@Pozitivi]

@@RockGullyMTB You're welcome ! Maybe you would enjoy to watch my riding videos too 🤘🤘

[@ChrisLeadley]

Looks like a great route to do but I think I'll leave it to the summer lockdowns etc permitting. Great vid by the way.

[@RockGullyMTB]

There are better routes, it was just a quick loop this one. I'll try to get a better route together when the weather improves. Thanks Chris 😁

We've been waiting to see "The Hunt for Bunton Hush" to see how you coped. It's a lot worse after the floods, so well done on surviving it. It's our backyard riding up that way from Reeth on our e-bikes, but we steer clear of Bunton Hush, although there is an easier (?) way down from Stonecrusher that we need to explore when the weather improves. Thanks for sharing Matthew.

[@RockGullyMTB]

It's very washed away in places. I hear there are a few ways down 🤔 I've been down Friarfold Hush before (which I used to think was Bunton Hush) and that was fun. Would like to explore a bit more over that way as there are a few bridleways.

Good effort that 👍

[@RockGullyMTB]

Thank you 👍

[@trailtrackermtb]

Looked hard work that one mate, well done though good video 👍🏻

[@RockGullyMTB]

It was brutal! Had intended on an easy ride that day 😆 thank you 👍

[@dazbbgful]

Just started exploring round here after seeing your videos. Are you using the garmin base maps.. Nice work mate

[@RockGullyMTB]

Cheers mate. I plot my rides on Garmin connect but also use OS maps for most routes

[@paulatack]

aw man i`m desperate to get back up there when when covid restrictions are eased but i reckon i`ll give bunton hush a miss if i`m on a solo ride!

[@RockGullyMTB]

Same here! Feels ages ago this ride, just before latest lockdown. It would have to be a summers day for me to ride down Bunton Hush again haha, and definitely not solo. Absolutely brutal it was 😬

[@paulatack]

just stumbled across this video while passing the time, i`m guessing it could be the same old mine entrance you looked into @3:00 and thought you may be interested,we`ve no idea how much history is in the ground we`re riding over. **just realised the entrance is totally different ** kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3mXnKWubc6tmpI

[@RockGullyMTB]

Fantastic find Paul 👍 really interesting. There must be loads of tunnels. I actually saw one entrance (inaccessible) part way down the Bunton Hush descent. Might have to find out more about the history of the area 🤔

[@paulatack]

i normally stop for a quick snack break at old gang smeltmill and mine but i`d realy like to spend longer and have a good wander round and as you say find out more about the area. i wish i`d been as interested in history when i was at school rather than having left it till i`ve a lot of history behind me!!

[@RockGullyMTB]

@@paulatack yeah that's a great place to stop. Haha I'm the same, I hated history when I was a kid, but get more interested as I get older. I might see if there are any books about on the area and learn more about it.
