Essex Herts MTB - Trail, Freeride and Downhill mountain bike riding in Epping, Danbury, Thorndon, Chicksands, Aston Hill and Woburn

A ride this weekend/ Saturday?

Hi,
is anyone up for a ride this weekend? I am keen to cycle somewhere new (not Epping or Broxbourne) for about 4 hours or so. I have average fitness and would like to enjoy the scenery and not thrash through it....Saturday would be a good day for me otherwise Sunday after 11 a.m.?

Thanks,

Ferenc

Danbury on tues 12th?

Is anyone planning a XC loop around Danbury anytime tues? Still keen to see what there is and guessing I won't get far on my own. Will head to the small area of trails I know in the afternoon anyway so let me know if I can tag along with anyone. Average fitness, not super fast. I'll look out lights. Cheers.
