The Ross stuff is great fun, pedal a bike away at cannop and lots of local singletrack around there!

I'm guessing your in newent? Then there is some in Ledbury and the malverns too

You can spend your whole life exploring the FOD - and never stop finding new/good stuff to ride.

I first rode there in 87 and still rate it as one of my favorite places. Proper woods, hills, river, natural stuff and man made stuff.

Got to agree, I've been riding in the woods at FoD since the early 60s and it's ever changing being a working forest.
Get to Pedalabikeaway at Cannop between Coleford and Cinderford as a starter, chat to locals and explore.

You're also quite close to the Malvern Hills and the Cotswolds for a good mix of riding. Plus you've got good access to South Wales, the Black Mountains and various trail centres at about an hour's drive.

There is also an excellent supplier of bike tyres in Newent (Next Day Tyres) and there's some excellent road riding too.
