Mountain Biking Rivington Pike
#7 of 98 mountain bike trails in England
Best place to start is at the top of the Pike by the castle. Once up here (after the climb) there is a short technical section that runs from the top, few drop offs and grassy sections.
Once you get the gate a left hand turn will take you to a couple of decent singletrack sections, and a right turn will take you back into the chinese gardens for a nice cross country section
