[#1320553]

Have to drop my son off at 9.00 am in the F of D and pick him up around 5 pm.(British Cycling holding a coaching session) So plenty of time in between for a bit of riding. Not been there before so if anybody about for either mountain biking or road biking it would be great to meet up. Quite flexible about pace and distance

Cheers
Mike

There will be a cc-cc ride gathering at the Pedalabikeaway Centre
from 10am. he guy who leads it, knows the forest like the
back of his hand. So the ride is bound to take in some very
interesting and hard to find singletrack.

Such stuff exists in the FOD, I thought it was only suitable for 6"+ travel bikes?

Cotswold & Cheltenham Cycle Club I believe.

It's the Wyedean Rally stages here today so some of the main tracks will be cut up by tommorrow. As mattsccm says, if you get to the Pedalabikeaway Cycle Centre on the B4234 near Cannop around 09.30 / 10.30 am there are likely to be a few groups going out or ask in the Centre and they'll point you towards some trails.

Whats the bike of choice?

Unless you want to session the DH runs, HT or XC full sus is fine. Undulating woodsy singletrack is the norm, ground is pretty dry at the moment. SS friendly area too 😀
