    in the mtb rides section there is a big thread of folk in essex who meet very regularly for rides, might be worth stopping by for a hello

    woburns been the only big trial place this year so far, oh and the little woods over here by church langley/newhall!, but have done round broxbourne/ goffs oak before.

    whats danbury like? any good for jump/dh virgins?
  • Yes, id also like to find some good riding spots around Harlow, Iv just moved here from Sheffield were the riding was great, essex seems a little flat.

    I guess Epping forest isnt far but iv no clue as to the best spots.

    epping forest would be fine if i could work out where i was in there lol
    danbury is brilliant for dh/jump virgins as it has so much to build up on.
    when i first went there i was braking and walking round some bombholes and obstacles now i just bomb through them.

    whats the forest like up by you ? flat ?

    yeah pretty much flat, although there is a cool tiny little wood bit by newhall with 1 or 2 jumps. its prob more for bmxers but i give it a go some sunday mornings!
