Sunday

Hello all,
I know it's only Tuesday but is anyone out on Sunday? Stephen suggested the quantocks, are you still up for it?

Re: Sunday

Having done a ride with Mike P over at Wentwood the other week could i suggest that. There is a downhill course, some very good singletrack, singletrack in the making and some stuff nobody knows about so it wont be chewed up.

Otherwise i am easy

Cheers

PS also itching to get out on my Stumpjumper FSR 120 Pro

Re: Re: Sunday

Hi Damon,

I would be keen to try Wentwood, but I saw something on Singletrackworld - a few people said they parked at the forest and had their cars broken into. Where did you park when you went with Mike, at the forest or in the village/town nearby ????

Is your FSR the one with the new fangled threshold thingy on the seat stay ??

Re: Re: Re: Sunday

I noticed that on STW as well. Foresters Oak is the car park where I normally park. Could always go to "Five Lanes" or park in Llanvar Discoed, but the ride would start with a epic road climb :-(

Re: Re: Re: Re: Sunday

It don't matter where you park, if their going to break in they will.

All, carparks are thief magnets. North Road is not exactly crime free, holford layby, afan, cwmcarn etc.

Chav's discriminate ;-)

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Sunday

Where is Wentwood anyway? Got a map ?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Sunday

Hi Alan,

Wentwood Forest is just on the otherside of the old Severn Bridge near Caerwent.

Regs,

Mike

Re: Re: Re: Sunday

Steve have you an email address? The picture of you in the gallery doesn't do you justice and I think you should see the original of you riding the drop off onto the path.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Sunday

So where are we going sunday?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Sunday

Where do you suggest?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Sunday

How about a couple of trails at afan, haven't done Penhydd for ages

Sunday

Afan is quite far away, I would prefer something like the quantocks (less muddy than anywhere else by far).
Or maybe a couple of circuits at Cuwn Carn.

Re: Sunday

Cwm Carns fine by me unless any one has any other ideas.

Meet at the cottage for 9am or cwm carn about 10

Re: Re: Sunday come to Wentwood...

... its good honest!! I will send out a email now as it is a ride Mike and myself will lead. Loads of really good tracks that no one hardly uses so it will be mostly dry. However if you want to go to Afan or Cwm carn etc its fine by me.
But either way meet at Cottage at 9:00am as usual.

Cheers
