| 21km (13 miles), 957m (3140ft) of climbing, 2-3 hours ride time.
This route follows a figure of eight. It kicks off with a big climb, followed by a fast, rocky and at times technical descent. There's some great singletrack, plus a lot of climbing for such a short ride.

Start/finish: Minehead promenade (grid ref: SS 973 463). |

|
| 17.9km (11 miles), 528m (1700ft) of climbing, 1.5-2 hours ride time.
This route focuses more on the southern parts of the Quantocks, with a bit more tree cover, so it's less exposed on windy days.
Start/finish: Car park at bottom of Holford Combe (grid ref 155 411). |

|
| 11.4km (7 miles), 179m (590ft) of climbing, 1-1.5 hours ride time.
This is a short loop on mostly easygoing - but occassionally rocky - trails, with not too much climbing. It's pretty much immune to the vagaries of weather, but you may not want to hang around too long on the exposed ridge if it's nippy.
Start/finish: Triscombe Stone car park (grid ref 163 359). |

|
| 26km (16 miles), 813m (2670 feet) of climbing, 2-4hrs ride time.
The Quantock's free-draining nature makes this an all-weather ride. Some stretches in the combes may get a bit sticky and the river crossings can get fairly deep in the wet, but that's about it.
Start/finish: Car park at bottom of Holford Combe (grid ref 155 411) |

| A fantastic 65mile road ride which follows the best part of stage 2 of the 2007 Tour of Britain stage. If taken as a fast paced road ride, fits it's 'difficult' description quite well. |
