Swinley forest

Hi,

If anyone would be interested in an away ride on Sunday. I'll be heading off to Swinley Forest for the day.

Swinley is near Bracknell, J10 of the M4 and is only about an hour or so away. Riding is from the look out centre, with miles of fast and flowing singletrack, fireroad and technical sections and will suit all abilities.

The area of Swinley Forest and Crowthorne Woods is vast, though relatively flat, there is an excellent network of trails, the area also plays host to several Gorrick races and the Sagem enduro with a 10 mile lap!. Cycling in Swinley is by permit (available from the look out) but the trails are well maintained and the permit is a small price to pay for access to such good riding. There is a cafe at the lookout centre and parking is free.

LOL

Sorry Chris, but I didn't post the message in the hope be told something I already knew.

I used to live in Bracknell for 4 years and know the trails around Swinley/Crowthorne wood very well, which lead me to suggest the ride.

Peace out

Anthony
