Long Mynd
This area is basically one long hill range crisscrossed with trails so you climb up one trail and ride down another and that's pretty much it.
That said the variety of trails varies a fair bit from well paved to rutted mud-fests so there is plenty to keep you occupied for a day's riding.
I based my ride from the 'Shropshire hills Mountain bike centre' at Marshbrook near Church Stretton and as well as having a camp site/bike shop and pub on their doorstep they pointed me in the right direction for a great days riding.

Minton Batch
Great facilities in Church Stretton and at Marsh Brook.
The Minton Batch descent is great fun and the size of the area means you can ride all day if you want
What do you like?
Minton Batch, Carding Mill Valley if you happen to be there when it is quiet.
What could be improved?
The descents are fun, but depending upon the route you pick the climb back up to the top can be tough.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
