MTB'ers Best Friend

We often ponder what is the best thing an MTB'er can get, after much deliberation my vote goes not to expensive components, clothing or evening a new bike, the best thing an MTB'er can get is himself/herself to the end of a deer-track.

A deer-track is a ready made ribbon of singletrack taking the best line along the hillside and through the undergrowth. Roots to negotiate, logs to cross and stumps to miss are all part of a deers fun and we can take advantage of their excellent trail building skills. Cracking singletrack that some else has already taken the trouble to clear what more could we ask for.

Heaven!
