Regular MTB/CX rides in Epping Forest

Valbonne

Gonna head out to Leith hill and make a day of it (my friend is being surprisingly un-flakey). Hit me up next time though.

No worries - have a good one

Lovely out there

Lovely. Where's that last one?

A lane called Green Lane, just after the bridge over the m25, coming back towards Woodredon Equestrian centre.

That was the only one I recognised. Where are the other 2?

The first is kind of hard to explain. Its from a gravel track between Daws Hill and Mott Street, looking east back towards the ridge. You get onto the track from the top of Daws Hill then it sort of winds back down.

The second is easy; towards the top of Lippits Hill.

Oh right, yes. Not been there for a few years :-)

I guess there had to be something easy about Lippits Hill...

Cool. I think I've found the first one on a map. Shall investigate.

Nice little spin today. The trails are really grippy for this time of year!

Whilst in Epping Forrest this afternoon... I cycled past a guy taking a photo of a fully clothed guy hugging a mostly naked pregnant woman near the little tea hut.

That was @Ramsaye

You mean that the bog of eternal stench grips you and won't let you go?

Can’t be me, mostly naked sounds overdressed for my forest antics.

anyone fancy a muddy ride next sun 26th?

I am. I haven't ventured into Epping yet but have spoken to someone about it recently and am keen.
If you're happy to put up showing me around/leading a bit then I'm up for it. Although my only suitable bike is my sscx rig, I have big tyres..

Yes!

I have bit tyres..

Why, to test the pressure?

Hah good spot

om nom nom

Also, I'd be up for doing that offroad bit through clapton both on the way up and the way back

edit, shit, justbbeen invited to a party in Bristol. Life is so complicated. Might just stay in bed.

ok let's see how it all pans out, if a few people are in we can do it fo sho
