4 hours of pure slop and rain, went home washed the bike and turned the hose on myself as well.
Ended up a billy no mates ride, but had a great time.

Epping is great fun in the dry as the trails flow well, in the wet however is another matter! |

They are all good but different, you'll need to go with a group ride to get the best out of each of them. We have a ride in Thorndon Saturday mornings at 9am setting off from the Kart Track carpark, your welcome to come along. |

Depends what you want to do really. Danbury = playground jumpy dh stuff. Epping loads of ST but hard to find yer way around if you dont know the place. Downhill uphill hard work but worth it. Thorndon flatter , flowy not very techy (unless you pop over the road to warley gap) but still fun and a nice cafe at the end.Parking £2 |

Hi Damo, Yes I'm out and the knee seems be improving. It looks as though it may be a bit damp at kick-off. |
