the Dartmoor Pony has lived in south-western England for centuries and is used for a variety of disciplines. ".only the hardiest of breeds survive." - I'm referring here to dartmoor's frames and their strength in the specific environment. "In upland areas where conditions are more harsh, only the hardiest of breeds survive including the famous Dartmoor ponies." Never get lost with the new Dartmoor MIST - coming 2013. A dartmoor mist can lead an unprepared walker into difficulties by enveloping him and many times travelers have been lost. You can make also a really nice promotional video on the same theme about the new frame - the mist, the forest, the leaves, the drops, the mud, the smell. They can appear and disappear without warning what I'm referring to ascending and descending with the bike and the power of nature. basically a mist is a blanket of low cloud which considering the height and location of Dartmoor means they can be a common occurrence. What started out in a stroll bathed in brilliant sunshine can end up in a navigational nightmare just in order to get safely back to civilisation."

OK Dartmoor company - I have 3 suggestions for you! Near to Moretonhampstead are two hills Hel tor and Blackingstone however he did stay long enough to do battle with the Devil and put the king of the underworld firmly in his place. Hence today Hel tor and Blackingstone are capped with two small tors or rather petrified quoits. Eventually as you would expect King Arthur won the match and the Devil in a fit of temper turned the last two remaining quoits into rock. The whistle blew and they began hurling mighty quoits at each other, before long they were landing everywhere, down in the valley and on both hillsides. So Arthur stood on Hel tor and the Devil stood on Blackingstone. Presumably the loser would be banished from the land. Then one day King Arthur engaged the devil in a hurling match. Originally they were just plain old hill tops as bare as a badgers arse with not a rock in site. Near to Moretonhampstead are two hills Hel tor and Blackingstone. However he did stay long enough to do battle with the Devil and put the king of the underworld firmly in his place. As counties go Devonshire is no exception although he does not seem to have stayed too long on Dartmoor, judging by the Arthurian legends he must have made a whistle-stop tour. Most of the tales are about his famous battles with invading hoards, dragons, and evil denizens of the underworld, including the Devil himself. The most famous person to emerge from the Dark Ages was the legendary figure of King Arthur.
