    easiest is not ness the best, if you start at the north entrance along the the avenue you can see trails leading into thorndon, or accross the road you can get into hartswood and donkey lane.
    If you want some maps i have a few of thondon routes i have done but i tend to change what i do there every time i go. (just PM me if you want them)

  • I'm in stanford-le-hope and ride langdon hills mostly on my own so it would be good to get out and ride with others. Thanks.

    No it was not us, we ride on Saturdays, Sundays tend to be a bit overcrowded have to keep stopping.

    We ride some evenings as well.

  • Thursday is good for me at either, just say where and when.

    JPSTAR. i ride all over langdon hills trying to get through as many miles as i can, i tend to stay off the areas that don't permit bikes it saves me from getting in to anything where i may wack someone. I get out when i can (got 3 kids) and want to ride the nights this winter, but i can wait for that, i'm not wishing the summer away yet.

    19:30 at the visitors Hut? (North end) or 19:30 at the ski slope if your driving and need to leave the car?

    Anyone else?
