    The rock bottom shop in Grassmere had some guides for MTB routes.

    For Yorkshire routes try: http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/penninebridleway/

    In the south Lakes Grizedale forest has lots of big tracks to get the miles in on, as well as the North Face route for some more technical stuff.
    Gisburn Forest near Slaidburn is worth a visit too. Have a look at the ForestryCommission's website.
