Not since I moved away 20 yrs ago..... Try popping in to Coombes cycles they'll probably be able to put you in touch with some folks

Coombes is still going they've just moved next door .... Third shop they've been in they've been moving steadily towards hightown and should relocate to near M&S in another 200 yrs.....

coombes and climb on are two different places!

Haven't been up to Hough woods for ages but would imagine it's a boggy nightmare at the moment. A lot of westwood has been shut off too now as it was sold privately so you can't park in the westwood car park ๐Ÿ™

if you know Hereford at all coombes are opposite the Main Entrance to the multi storey car park. climb on is just down the road towards the school but turn right just before the school.

I live about half a mile from Haugh Woods, happy to show you what I know/ride although it's not everyone's cup of tea - drop me an e-mail.

Oh, and Coombes and Climb On are completely different shops although relatively close together.

My local trails same as Big Ted above - was riding there last night - bit of a mudfest in places but lots of drier parts if you know were to go - plus all the other stuff behind Fownhope.

I'd be interested in heading out round there again if anyone's riding, I work in hereford but haven't ridden there in years. It would make a change from the mud around Ludlow where I usually ride, at least I'd get to ride some different mud! As said above, most of westwoods (including all the dh runs as far as I could see) have now gone.

I was there yesterday on the cross bike. Some bits nice and dry, some bits properly horrid. Tim - you'll havet to show me the bits around fownhope. There looks to be some good stuff there.
