Introduction

So, here it is. I’m planning to write a series of articles here, related, at least tangentially, to car-free mountain biking. I claim no expertise, but hope the articles will be of interest.

Why car-free?

Basically, because I don’t have, or want, a car. I’ve got a motorbike, which does have a bike rack, believe it or not (might post about that here some time, as an aside),  but I plan most of my rides around public transport, where practical.

Why mountain biking?

If you have to ask…

Why northern England?

It’s where I live, specifically York. There aren’t too many places to ride locally (though there are some; more on that later), but the transport links are decent.
