I'm up in Birmingham for a few days and have taken my bike with me. I've told there's a route called 'Follow the Dog' which I'm going to try and ride on Tuesday - but having never been to Cannock before is this easy enouh to find / pick up? Presumably there a visitors centre somewhere?

From Birmingham your best way is A38 towards Lichfield and come off following Signs for Rugeley.

When you come into Rugeley follow signs for A51 and the Birches Valley Centre is signposted.

FTD is a good ride mate so enjoy. As glennpro09 says, postcode is WS15 2UQ in case you need it.

Lovely, thanks guys. Am all ready to ride tomorrow, just hope the snow holds back for one more day. Really looking forward to it.

I take it the route is reasonably easy to follow?

Start at the Visitor centre by Swynnerton shop.

Under the FTD start point and follow the signs! Pretty well signposted.

There tomorrow night on a night ride. Well awesome!

Well, I did 3 loops of Follow the Dog today and thoroughly loved it. I'll definitely try and make it up to the opening of the revised route on the 20 March thats for sure.
