Hello all (new to stw),

I have recently moved to the cambridge area and discovered that woburn trails are not to far away ๐Ÿ™‚

The woburn trails website details the start point but has no specifics. Are the loops clearly marked / easy to follow?

No not really. There are some markers pointing the way to the play area and a few other places, but you couldn't follow a ride by them.
Your best bet is to hook up with someone, if they'll have you ๐Ÿ˜‰
The place is always pretty busy so finding someone to follow ain't a problem. Otherwise just shout out on here and I'll show you around if I'm free.

I thought the slidey slime last weekend was ace.

Spring will be faster but grippier I suppose

No problem. Though if you go around getting your wheels off the ground like you are in your pic you'll be on your own, as I can't do all that malarky.

I like to mix my riding up, although my main interest in Woburn at the moment is to learn some xc loops.

If you want to explore by yourself then there are about 3 main areas that are pretty much ringed off by roads, each about a mile or so square. So if you make a point of not crossing any tarmac roads then you can zig zag about discovering the trails without any fear of getting lost or ending up miles away.

Indeed Jase. Or in my case when I first went there after packing food water and tools I ended up where I had started from 30 seconds later ๐Ÿ˜ณ
