Sat hopefully, fast full ride, including Loughton loop. Depart 10.00am south woodford, Sundays ride as reqiured, same 10.00 am start. Lets hope it stays reasonably dry, even with the rain last Sunday it was still very warm.
Hope to see more of you soon, new riders welcome. Mike.

Careful guys, with all this talk of 'fast and furious' you'll get the same reputation as the EFMBC!! Very Happy

Hi Rich - welcome to the forum.
These days it looks like there's a faster ride on Saturdays and a more leisurely ride on Sundays.
Both rides are probably about 25 miles with a stop midway at High Beach for tea/cake/sandwich/burger.

As per Emily's response, it would be better to join us first for a Sunday ride which is normaly a bit calmer, though I would not leave it to long as once the forest gets heavey rainfull it does get difficult to ride. Hope to see you soon, Mike.

yeah a Sunday sounds like a good idea. I'll keep an eye on the forum!

Cheers

Should be moving to Derby sometime before Christmas (job-hunting dependant) but really want to get out in the Forest at least once before then!

Application is in so, with some luck, this time next year I'll be worrying about learning my new local trails....... in Vancouver!

Maybe some practice around the Dales would be useful for moving out there?!

I won't be out this weekend though as visiting family in Southend area and then Swinley on Sunday with a mate...

Enjoy the trails, everyone Very Happy
