Regular MTB/CX rides in Epping Forest

PFF already listed on the bay.

@psg1ben ISSI so if you've got SPD cleats they'll be fine.

Combining that bike with @psg1ben

Just to clarify that's just on one side.

Weather looks good for Saturday...

Thought we were doing Sunday?

I saw a Badger in Epping today. Unfortunately it wasn't of the Honey variety, and also unfortunately, it was dead.

I've never ever seen an alive one.

No, I can't recall seeing one either. It was at the end of the arrow, on the path that runs alongside the field. No sign of any injury, maybe it just dropped dead. I've seen a Badger hole in that area, but you never know if it's an active sett or not, unless you stake it out.

One chased me, once upon a time when I lived in the West Country

Does that trail actually go anywhere I've ridden it a couple of times, but just seems to end?

If you mean from south to north, I'm pretty sure if you cross the road you can go under the M25 and along that strip of trees to Copped Hall green. Though i haven't done it for years, maybe I'm wrong, and it may be overgrown etc. I tend to via off to the left along the strip of trees between the fields in the first photo.
