G’day all, I posted a few weeks ago about heading over from Australia to Solihull working for a couple of months. I have now moved and would be keen to get out and see a few trails in and around the local area, as well as things further afield. I plan on heading to wales for a weekend riding, also wouldnt mind checking out the Lakes District at some point.
Anything more local anyone can suggest? I have heard there are some trails in and around Cannock…buts thats about it so far. Any suggestions welcome. Cheers.

Cannock would be the nearest trail centre, probably the easiest option with it been waymarked. Despite what some might say on here, the Follow The Dog course is great fun, nothing technical really butm is better faster you ride it, IMO. There is Lickey/Clent, Wyre Forest and the Malverns all within an hours drive, but you would need a local to show you the good stuff.

Lickeys and Clent about 30 mins away, Wyre 60 mins away. Can guide you round, no probs.
