Would any FOD locals be kind enough to share some local knowledge, please?

It’s my birthday (34) on the 2nd, so a few of us from Devon are planning on doing some riding in the Forest on Saturday the 3rd. Only thing is, none of us know where we’re going.

would anyone perhaps like to act as a guide for the day? I’ll bring birthday cake.

Hi mate

I’m super slow (due to unfitness at the moment), but I know enough trails there to make a 3 hour ride feasible (though might be 4 given the mud and my unfitness levels!).

I can see if a couple of my mates that know the trails a bit better than me would be up for it too if you fancy?

mboy, that would be great. Email me your phone number and I’ll give you a call. There’ll probably be about 5-6 of us coming.

Can show you up to 80odd miles of top singletrack and I’m around on the 3rd if you need showing around!

Can totally speak for Sheldon, I asked the same back in November and Sheldon organised a great day for us and knows the forest like the back of his hand ;o)

Sponging machine, can’t see your email address, what is it?

Are you still intending to head down the FOD on Saturday?

I am in the Forest Fri/Sat/Sun and would be more that happy to guide anyone around. I lived in the Forest for a couple of years and have been Mountain Bike Guiding abroad as of recent times. I know the Forest really well as having guided for pedal-a-bike away and I also have a couple of tracks named after me up on Staple Edge that not too many people know about.

Let me know if you are interested?

Ola Matt, como esta? ;~)

Hola Pedro. Como este? Hello Pete. It was good to see you today, also Rich and Kevin. Still no reply from the guy after a guide so I guess they have it covered?

When I am next up in the Forest I will msg you to see if you are free for a ride out?

Take care.

Matt
