I've checked the weather forecast and Tuesday and Wednesday doesn't look too bad so would like to take my 11yr old daughter out for a days riding that isn't my local trails.

Nothing too extreme. Any recommendations within a couple of hours drive of Milton Keynes?

Cheers

Ken

I was thinking of cannock to be honest

trekcol....we ride Woburn most weekends when she is here so we wanted to go somewhere different

cyclelife....she'd laugh at you for calling her "the little one"....this is her below

Chase is a good choice. Trails are nice and dry. FTD should be nice and quiet and you could also go over to Sherbrook and do a bit of exploring. I think there are normally a few locals that ride out from Marquis Drive on Wednesday that might show you around.
