MTB Cannock Chase - 18th April Bank Holiday Monday

Post by stuart jones » 06 Apr 2022 00:22

MTB Cross Country Trials at Cannock Chase Birches Valley Forestry Centre @ 8:30am (trails can get very busy later in the day!) Bank Holiday Monday 18th April.

Will look to lead a group on the red route (dog/monkey) plus some forestry tracks:

Depending on who is interested will determine whether there are faster/slower groups on the modified dog/monkey and possibly a leisure trail ride too.

There is a cafe at the Centre along with toilets. There is a parking fee, but not particularly expensive.

Great run out to cannock chase, enjoyed by all.....planning to go back.

Omg this is what I have been waiting for! Sign me up please Stuart!

I'm assuming you meant "trails" rather than "trials" as I don't think I'm good enough to do any trials! lol

Awesome job Coach Stu! Thanks for organising and for the lift! That aside, thanks for being so knowledgeable and encouraging since I’ve never ridden trails like this and you made it easy to just go for it with confidence on rock gardens etc. I’ve had a big stupid grin on my face ever since I got home. Thanks again mate!
