Post subject:  Newbie from London with way to many bikes

Hello everybody, new here on this forum & didn't know it existed until a friend told me about it. I'm from East London & have way tooooooo many bikes :roll: . Ranging from commuter, touring, XC & AM. Don't have a road bike though!

Been a member on other bike forums for a while & been out on a few rides with them, won't mention forum names just incase I break any rules! Any way looking forward to joining a few rides in the future :thumbup: .

Been up to Swinley Forest a few times, Ingrebourne Hill, Easbrooke End Country Park, Hainult Forest, Bedfords Park, Epping Forest, Wanstead Flats & quite a few of the canal paths around London.

Currently trying to get back in to AM riding & improve my fitness after a crash.

Hello Bob, I ride most weekends at Wanstead Flats or West Ham Park as its not to far from me, you can't miss me I'm usually the one with the only Giant Reign there. I also go down to Haggerston Park on the BMX/Dirt track now & again to get back into jumping or practice falling over :lol: .

Strangely I've only been to Central Park in East Ham the once for a bike ride. Let me know if your up for a ride as you seem pretty local to me.

Thanks for the invite Bob, I don't drive at the moment so would probably have to ride up to you. Will give you a bell sometime today hopefully to arrange a ride.
