Hi,

I am going on golf tour tomorrow for three days. Just wondering if it is worth taking the bike to blast round the local forest? I will probably be hungover so don't want to travel. Is it worth taking my bike to explore from the doorstep for an hour or two?

thanks

Id say very much so, but just dont stay in Slaley Forrest itself. Youre just on the edge of Blanchland and Edmundbyers if I remember correctly. We used to ride around there when I was at uni at newcastle. There was a 20km and a 30km route both passing through Slaley Forrest i think.I have the Beyond Hammsterly book which has those routes in it. I can dig out the routes from there when I get home this evening. Unless someone beats me to it today.

The singletrack across Burbeck is good, the edmunbyers bit is brilliant, but it'll take you further out
