Just looking for a crew to go out with around north wales. Just moved to chester and have been out to the clwyds twice and coed Llandelga. Would be good to meet a few locals to find out more about the scene.

Cheers
Conor!!

    It's not this forum, it's the web-trawling bots.
    It comes up really high on Google's search results list, so there's probably a lot of traffic, including unwanted stuff.

    Hey Conor,

    I'm fairly new to Chester too and have riden in both the places you mentioned. Can't help but feel there has to be more riding out there.

    What kind of riding do you do?

    I'm almost certain you're allowed to ride in the Moel Famau area. I went there to take pictures of the sunrise on the solstice, and it looked like there were a good few fun trails there.

    Hey chillibeer!

    Unfortunately at the moment I'm just doing XC as that is the only type of bike I have. I will be upgrading to a 5-6" travel bike in next few months when I get some cash and after that I will be up for anything. I was into DH before so I have all the gear!! I'd be well up for some night riding around chester if your interested! Send me a pm if you are up for a spin at the weekend or a night ride during the week!!

    Chat later
    Conor!!

    MTBPlanet (http://www.mtbplanet.com/) have a big group of riders from the Chester / Wrexham area, and The Edge Cycleworks (http://www.theedgecycleworks.com/) organise regular 'shop' rides :wink:
    It's all good fun until someone loses a bollock.

    it is really when you look at how many people we have responding/riding from the south wales rides thread, i'm suprised, thought there'd be more :?

    There is loads to do around that area, as long as you can travel a bit.
    Have a look into eastridge woods to get you started into dh, it's fairly easy to find, just outside shrewsbury.
    Then if you can go a bit further there'es places like hopton castle, bringewood, bucknell. These are great tracks, quite a push up though!! but if you look on www.pearcecycles.co.uk they run regular uplift days!!
    Other than that the closer one is moelfre, but you'd need to look out for uplift days, because it would take you a long time to push up it!

    maybe because North Wales is such a massive area. Narrowing it down somewhat might help.
    Isn't this also the thread where someone is spamming links to another forum doing the same thing?
