September 9, 2024,MTB ride
Garmin ran out of battery before the end of the ride, good job I knew where I was!
On the loop north of Fritham 20km into this ride go straight ahead along Homy Ridge until you get to the main road (Roger Penny Way) before turning right and continuing the route.

The Bikepacking.com route takes you left off track following no noticeable route currently through a highly overgrown area of ferns.
