Hi Caveman,
Which issue was it in?0 -
This months - June addition.
The Fodca trail is short only 3 miles. Everything else is about exploring, but there's plenty on offer, I love it.0 -
it says on the website that the fodca trail is closed. is this true0
-
Its been closed for some time because near the start there's some felling at present, however I see people still riding it on weekends & evenings.0
-
There's some pretty solid downhill tracks near the FODCA trail too caveman0
-
FODCA was opened for a bit with a diversion just after the start,
went over there this afternoon and the felling has started again and a new closed sign at the start,
tried to ride it but several trees are lying on the climb after the first wide stone track crossing,
after the first mile it is fine,0 -

The article is based around Cannop Cycle Centre. The cross country trail they talk about is the FODCA trail (soon to be renamed the Freeminer Trail) but they also mention some of the downhills too (Endo, The OC, etc) Map; http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=101378758141447101792.000467dad0c4904e59621&ll=51.780692,-2.559471&spn=0.028409,0.054846&t=h&z=140 -
