I haven't ridden there since the start of last year when a lot of the trails were ruined during logging. However, I saw some pics taken at the end of summer of some newly built berms etc at what looked like Tilgate. Anyone know about these? I know about the new charge ๐Ÿ™

XC in Tilgate is free and will remain free. The charges apply to the CTC linked Ride Tilgate area thats being developed.

Here's the link [url= http://www.ridetilgate.co.uk/Site/Ride_Tilgate.html ]Ride Tilgate[/url]

Facebook Linky [url= http://en-gb.facebook.com/pages/Ride-Tilgate/164345096909943 ]Facebook Ride Tilgate[/url]

The whole area is rideable now after the FC restored the Fireroads and made good the damaged caused by the logging.

Some of the new runs are great fun!

is that a regular thing belugabob? Can't make it for a few weeks but that sounds like a good, if dark way of exploring again.

tcas146, the xc is free but the words of the CTC at 'the meeting' were less than conclusive. The 'xc is free but should Tilgate get popular.....'

We need to keep an eye on things so to speak, but I agree with your optimism at the moment. ๐Ÿ™‚

Belugabob - I have registered on the Sussex forum as I would love to join you guys for a regular night ride but for some reason I can't post yet as I have not yet received the activation email. Just thought I'd let you guys know in case there are others that might want to join but can't get onto the forum.
