MTB Trip to Single Track Trails (Swinley, Thetford, Cannock?)

Evening All,

I have the weekend of the 23rd/24th put aside for a day trip to one of the forests for some single track mountain bike rides. This could be Cannock, Swinley, Thetford etc.

I can do either Saturday or Sunday, depending on what people prefer.

I didn't get any interest in the last MTB day trip so I'm hoping that by leaving the details open I might get some comments. Please do let me know what you think, even if you're completely uninterested and I'm barking up the wrong tree. I won't know unless I get feedback.

Many Thanks
Phil

Phil, I like the idea and thank you for making the effort to set something up. Unfortunately I am taking my Son to Uni on the 23rd and Velo Birmingham on 24th so cannot do that weekend.

Thanks Jeff, appreciate the feedback :-)

Great plan @Phil ! Like @Jeff I'm riding Velo Birmingham.
I don't think my legs will appreciate two days in the saddle.

Thanks John. Maybe I've just been unlucky with dates. Hopefully the remaining events will soon be in the club diary on the website, which might help going forward.

Same here! Would come but velo brum!

No worries @AdamPool, I'll go and have fun even if no-one else comes! I just wanted to make sure I was coming up with the right sort of ideas.

I will organise a few more local rides over the winter, and see how it goes.

Already booked out on the Saturday for a birding trip so Sunday maybe?
Please count me out

Hello Phil,
I'm happy with either date. Cannock would be my preference but happy with Swinley too.
Cheers Garry

Hello,
Is anyone still interested in a trip to Cannock or Swinley on Sunday 24th?

@Phil I'm assuming not as you are doing the A ride with Guy?

Hi @Garry.Bayford Sorry, it's been a manic week and I somehow missed your post. I had cancelled the event as no-one seemed interested, you're the only person to express any interest in 3 such events so far :-(

[Also, I inadvertently planned it for the same weekend everyone is off to the Velo Birmingham event., which probably hasn't helped.]

There are still the following:

Thursday 28th September - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm
Thursday 12th October - MTB Evening Ride 7pm -9.30pm
Saturday 21st October - MTB Gran Fondo - Time TBA

...and I am going to do a few more over the winter months.

Regards,
Phil.

No problem @Phil I'll see if I can make one of the evening rides.
