Post subject:  First time riding Danbury.
Hi All,

Spend allot of time in Danbury and want to get more trail experience (and get my fitness up) as I'm planning to do the London to Southend sponsored off road. I did a skills course in the Surrey hills (Holmbury Hill) in Feb which was great, but to be honest, there were moments which scared the hell out me :D so want to build up my skills, speed and confidence. I can ride ok, but still very much a beginner when it comes to handling my bike off road.

Planning to go this Sunday (14th April) to have a first ride in Danbury, if anyone else is there it would be great to be shown a good loop to session on.

Cheers all!

Thanks!

Yeah, having a look but feared it might be alittle damp :) perhaps I am being a little optimistic because of the hot day we are meant to be having tomorrow!

I am aiming to get there by 9,30 (ish) tomorrow and see how I get on.

Parking at Bicknacre Rd car park .

Riding a Canyon 29er hardtail, so should be interesting :)

Had my ride and was a complete blast, really wasn't that wet at all. Wanted to say thanks to the guy who showed more round, I never got his name but he really helped, even when I went over the bars :)

Will be going again to session some of the less vertical sections and try to avoid launching myself over the bars again! :D

Hi all,

Just arrived to Chelmsford area. i was thinking of hitting Danbury (once I unpack everything, including the bike!!)

Is is easy enough for a newbie? most of my vertical/obstacles experiences have ended up flying :-) so I wante dot start over again by going over some easy trails

Cheers
