All set then! Excellent. Gonna get some body armour and knee pads, because I would like to do some of the bigger sections in the arvo.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Post subject:  Re: Cannock Chase
I havent got any body armour or a full face. Just knee elbows and helmet. Thats enough for most of it right?

Post subject:  Re: Cannock Chase
Deffo - its only the DH trials that will require any armour and we will start with the XC stuff anyway

Guys,

Whilst looking for information on Cannock and possible meet point came across this which states part of the Xc 'Follow the Dog' wil be closed (sections 9,10,11). Forum chat states that they dont think it will be a big deal given the other stuff available i.e. transferring onto the Monkey trail.

Are we looking to meet at the Birches valley centre :- WS15 2UQ, which allows us to get straight on the trails?

Thereafter we need to get to Stile Cop for more DH stuff in the afternoon me thinks!
