Lunch break ;)
Thorndon has a maze of trails and lots around the outskirts.
15mins up the road in Danbury has some great riding too.

It's all lies, all lies!

As ian said, thorndon is a bit of a maze of routes and part of the fun is trying to find the best way of linking everything. I'm away this weekend but will be more free next week in the late afternoons/evenings. (been doing shift work for the last 6 months but back on to days). What sort of rideing do you do? fitness ect? what sort of times are you free?

Hi Matt,
i usually stop to work at 5.30 pm so i could be ready for 6.30, now that days become longer it will be great.
what sort of rider? not DH absolutely, xc and have fun. i don't want to be a pro, just have fun.
of course sat and sunday alway available.

p.s. also the late evening i've ceed 2000 lumen, and we use to night ride in Italy.

I think I'm free next Wednesday night if you wanted to meet up 645-7 for a tour of thorndon. I would say the type of ridding we try and do over thorndon (and dambury) is trail rather than xc (not huge mileage but with as many technical features as possible (foot or two drops, logs, lots of single track ect)). Yer lights would be needed for the last bits of the ride
