I went to Llandegla mid week mid morning and did it in 1Hr 25 or so - it's in the wrong direction for 'on the way home' though - you can get to rides in the Peak district in that time - still in the wrong direction.

There are a lot of easy dh runs at Stiles cop. Might be worth at look after the cannock monkey and dog. If you don't fancy them.maybe try Hopton xc route as I've heard nothing but praise

Black section on stile cop closed, I'd do a lap of the dog and the monkey

If anything - I'd drive to Llandegla saturday, then back to cannock Saturday night, then ride Cannock Sunday then home - both are reliable with regards the weather/mud/minimal destruction of trails, unlike a lot of the other stuff between Cannock and Bristol.

I'd agree with Bokonon

Bokonon sounds like a plan but the 3.5 hr drive would suck.
