Just got back, a really good course, lots of steep climbs, and equally good downhills, with fast swoopy bits in between.

Eastridge woods seems to be totally undiscovered by a lot of cyclists and has 2 trails for mountain bikers and a lot more interesting looking bits.

Nice catering, and reasonable prices.

Some pictures up later.
