    Try MK17 8TA that'll take you up into the centre of Woburn trails (commonly known as the sandy cross roads) though they've just tarmac'd it!

    Play area is on the A5130 Woburn road (Apsley Heath) Coming from Woburn Sands, there's a blocked off Quarry entrance on the left. Then a few yards on there's a grassy area on the right. That's the play area behind the fence.

    That would be cool. I'll be parking somwhere between the start and finish. I'll on a grey Pearson cross bike. Want to register at the start for my route card for free beer & chips.

    Was down this morning as well. Was my first time and didn't see everything, but managed to find the Empire Strikes Back, find lots of nice trails, meet Ken Shields and I think i saw Jedi doing some instructing near Empire Strikes Back…with a dude with a beard i think.

    Oh Ken, i think i went the wrong way out of the gates to get to the roller coaster as come to a crossroads with Woburn Golf Course straight over and no signs of a church so gave up. Will have to be guided there sometime.

    Might need to sort out a more fluid route in future tho 😉

    Hi

    These are typical Woburn rides. We are normally around near the Church, top of the hill, about 9.00 Sunday mornings if anyone wants some local guiding, or ping me an email for contact number.

    I saw a group of 3 riders, 1 with a beard. Plus I've got a beard at the mo but I was billy no mates yesterday.

    Planning on getting out a couple of times a week for a while and try and get some fitness back.

    jedi, Thomthumb has a mahoosive wildman of a beard and he was one of the guys you were coaching

    Jamie, that's the correct crossroads where I said to take the right turn up to the church and onto the rollercoaster. Blurboy would be a good guy to hook up with as he really knows his way about at Woburn

    Looks like Jedi has the dreaded Beard Blindness. Apparently he has walked right past Brian Blessed without noticing him.

    Cheers for the tip Ken, confident-ish i know the way now. I did ask someone but they were not local and didn't know.
