    Last one was sent as a MMO file for memory-map. I've converted it to GPX for you instead. Hope it works this time.

    Woodbury Common had a big fire yesterday - may not be open to the public today.
    Mark
    Genesis Croix de Fer - my new commuting mount
    Saracen Hytrail - the workhorse - now pensioned off
    Kinetic-One FK1 roadie - the fast one - hairy legs though!
    Cannondale Jekyll Lefty MTB - the muddy one which keeps tipping me into gorse bushes!

    Cheers for heads up Markp 2 but it was fine up there had a good morning ride although was very hard to find way around tracks were ok but found them very hard going as there seemed to be lots of sand type tracks!!!!
    Also there was a race going on that day but we were done long before that started
    Army was training all over as well shooting etc my son was well impressed lol

    Glad you enjoyed it. All that sand makes Woodbury a great choice for Winter/wet Summers.
