I live just 6 miles from the South downs- a 100 mile ridge of offroad fun.If you lived that close to them- then your first bike would have been and MTB. The freedom of the countryside and the lack of motor vehicles just cannot be ignored.
Trails may be a bit rough and ready but great riding to be had.
But we all mature and locally we have a MUP called the "Cuckoo Trail". An old disused railway line that is part of the nationwide trails and is named after the Bird that inhabits the woods along the trail
Artistic touchs made along the trail aswell that enhance the enjoyment of all users.
But road riding is pretty safe over here now. Car drivers respect cyclists but there are still plenty of back roads to enjoy the scenery on.
So yes I do ride mainly on trails- Mups and road
