will email you later mate....

im in a small village between stratford and evesham...so slightly wrong direction for you..but got car carrier also so no probs with me getting anywhere...

Ive got Bredon Hill not too fare away form me (25 mon dr) which is awsome to climb..absolutely knackering .. bordering on passing out halfway up, but the views at the top are stunning and you can imagine the blast down is pretty exhillerating too. Ive only done this once with a neighbour but cant wait to do it again........once we have some longer spell of dry weather.
Also have a cracking little loop nr me about 1hr15mins over bridleways, through wood, uphill and wonhill whihc is a grt blast.
My neighbour and I are hoping to get to cannock chase over next few weeks...of course open invitation.....Im pretty new to all this after giving up my expensive gym membership and hitting the grt outdoors...now really loving it.

your small village isn't anywhere near salford priors is it? xand_xand?

I live just outside Leamington if anyone is that direction, out towards Harbury. I can often be found rolling around Burton Dassett hills in the evening, I've just started going to Leamington 4X track trying to learn to jump at lunch or at Cannock Chase most weekends.

I've done a few little loops around here, Ryton Pools, I still want to explore Edge Hill more in the sun, Centenary Way silliness. I need to get across to Warwick by the sound of it, I've heard a few people mention trails that direction.

I'm not about this weekend, I'm visiting my folks up norf and going biking with some mates in Dalby, unforunately I've totalled a spoke on Burton Dassett tonight somehow so I'm madly trying to find somewhere to fix it or a quick replacement wheel! Damn cheapy factory OEM wheelbuilds!

Shame this never took off

chrisga

We are harbury way too and so could get to burton dassett easily. Also want to find some of the stuff around edge hill too.

Let us know if anyone is going over there. We are away in Wales this weekend, cwmcarn, afan and brechfa hopefully, but otherwise usually about with a bit of notice!

kazzie

Im in Rugby so not far away at all. I'd be up for meetin up and going riding. I always get more motivation when havin a few riding buddies. Just drop us an email kaz_575@hotmail.com

Im just doing the old essentials on the bike before heading off to Cannock. Should be good in the rain....

xand_xand

Shame these things never take off....lots of local peeps all saying they live within easy reach of each other but nothing ever happens...
Im just outside stratford upon avon, can easily commute about with my car and bike rack im in my 30's (early 30's) and love trekking about on trails and bridlepaths etc....

Ive not got the best MTB in the world and im not the fittest but i recently got into MTBing and really enjoy it..though its more knackering than i ever imagined it would be.....

Id happily meets up with any of you guys and try out some of your routes...i have afew good ones of my own too!

So if someone wants to arrange something do post on here and maybe we can all make some new buddies and buddettes of course...life is short!

The Rookie

I too am in Leamington and have an enthusiastic daughter who would love to do some rides...am justing starting out again myself having not really ridden for 20 years!

Where is this 4X track mentioned, my daughter rides a track somewhere near new Cubbington/Lillington, (not been there) is that it?

Hi All,

I live in Leamington and have recently got into mountain biking again. I'd love to meet some like minded, similarly aged (20's - 30's) people to go out on the odd mid-week and weekend ride in the area.

This post seems to have been going for a while... with not much success. So with a bit of luck we can sort something out.

Cheers

Charlie
