None mountain biker - loking to start mountain biking

I cycle to/from work most days + enjoy days-out ...and I am think of take up mountain biking...

Where is the best place to try mountain biking.
Also where is the best place to hire a bike? or is it best to buy a bike, because it takes sometime to find-out if yoy like it?

Are there many new mountain bikers within the
Bristol mountain bike club? or are most intermediate/advanced riders?

Hi,

See post below.

As for hiring bike, I throw this to the floor. I think pembury cycles (link above) hire out bikes. But I may be wrong.

Forest of Dean?

I am interested in the Forest of Dean rides... How are the ride done...

Different groups for Different ability...
How far do you ride?
How long?
Do you do multiple rides from a single start point? i.e. from a bike centre in the FOD
How long are the days...am/pm/all day?
