    I’ve got a pretty good chance of getting a new job down in Poole, what’s the biking like around there? Purbeck any good, any decent downhill tracks around?

    Purbeck is great. UK Bike Park is in Dorset which has dh tracks (not been there myself). Plenty of riding in Dorset.

    Wareham Forest routes needed please, for cycling with my GF tomorrow (Tuesday) – can anyone help out?
    I’ve got the Sika cycle trail map, seems a bit too tame even for her.

    Agreed , there’s lots of nice riding this way. The purbs are good, wareham forest, upton and plenty more.

    Dave- not much around the sika trails but from there you could head for the sherford bridge area. You may find something of interest there 😉
