Description

The quaint hamlet of Stanmer with its glorious manor house and delightful manicured grounds is surrounded by ancient woodland that is festooned with serpentine singletrack.

This ride is about showing you everything from the Brighton Big-Dog MTB race course to all the hidden and unmarked gems of flowing and twisting trails, plus the all important delicious cake at the tea rooms. It’s pretty amazing that all this is on the city limits of Brighton.
