    I couldn’t possibly say, you might wait there next time I’m out and jump from behind a bush and shout BOO 😯

    Edit: Half a message there – stupid computer.

    Umm, used to go to Hough/Westwood a lot but not since they put that stupid sign up, or FOD, or around kington in the hills, brecon/malvern etc. No where much to ride very locally though so we tend to have to drive whereever we go unless you know of any other places.

    Well I’m in Worcester, so Malvern occasionally, FOD about once a month too, though recently been riding in the Wyre Forest a bit now that I’ve found some people who actually know the trails round there. Tis good!
