apologies it's taken a bit longer to get off the ground but I've had a few very busy weeks what with one thing and another.
I've got some Thursday evenings put aside for local rides starting from Buckingham, and maybe a couple of trips to Woburn to try out the new trails there at @JohnnyG and @AdamPool have been telling me about.
I have also got dates for trips to Swinley Forest and Thetford, to do the single track routes there.
Finally, I plan to finishing the clubs mountain bike events for the year at the end of October with a Mountain Bike Gran Fondo, a trip to Nuneaton by train to cycle back to Milton Keynes along the Grand Union Canal towpath. It's not quite 100 miles, more like 56, but I figure miles take longer on a mountain bike, so it's close enough for me :-)
So here are some mountain bike event dates for your diaries below. @MattH - is it possible to put these on the club website diary?
Thursday 27th July - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm
Thursday 3rd August - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm
Thursday 17th August - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm Saturday 26th August - Trip to Thetford Forest 8am - 1.30pm
Thursday 31st August - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm
Thursday 14th September - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm Saturday 23rd September - Trip to Swinley Forest 8am - 1.30pm
Thursday 28th September - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm
Thursday 12th October - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm Saturday 28th October - MTB Gran Fondo - Time TBA
I will publish routes and trip details on the club rides thread as per the normal Wednesday and Sunday rides.
I hope that this suits everyone, and I'm looking forward to Thursday and our first ride. It'll probably be Stowe/Silverstone, as everyone tells me it's a really good route.
