Hi I recently moved to Langdon Hills. I'm keen to get back out on my bike following a short absence due to moving and an expanding family. I'm keen to ride any time, all weathers weekday evenings or weekends. If anyone can show me some local trails with aim to ride at least 2x a week that would be appreciated. Thanks Duncan |

I'll be well up for some of this but i need two things first, 1 some general fitness as mine sucks at the moment, 2 something to cart my bike on/in as the missus took my car to heathrow whilst she's out in Athens so i have to ride really local this weekend LOL |

My fitness aint *all that*!! and most of the regular lads seem to be saying they'll wait for the less fit amongst us anyway - its a bit of fun rather than a race after all!! Why not chuck your bike on the C2C - Laindon & Stanford Le Hope stations are pretty close to Langdon Hills? |

Yep its all about fun and the pace will suit all, anyway the hills sap the pace and the energy out of you and come to think of it, the will to live sometimes! Only joking. i'll be riding past stanford station almost, on the way there if anyones traveling that way. |

I might drop by the station actually, its a nice easy downhill from Horndon on the Hill LOL!! Will get us warmed up by the time we reach Langdon I suppose. What time are you leaving Stanford? |
