Saturday rides: NEXT RIDE: 9AM SATURDAY FEB 6TH: ride over woodbury common again, but don't think it will be the same if you have been before, we will always pick different trails, but also do the old favourites. It is not a race, we go at the pace of the weakest rider and we will give advice on the way and be there to support you mechanically if needed. Places need to be booked in advance with a £5 payment, we hope you agree this is a nominal amount for what we are offering, and is made to get a committments to come along as numbers will be restricted to 10 riders unless we have a second guide/helper. Rides will be led by a member of staff, we hope to continue rides throughout the year. As numbers build the groups may be divided according to experience and fitness, but initially the aim to get riders out there who perhaps don't want to ride alone or would like the reassurance of a guide and also the technical back up should you develop a problem. NOTE - Helmets compulsory if you want to come!! For the benefit of the group we can only take over 14's at present, and under 16's need to be accompanied, this is in case they have to turn back and need help. Once we are happy that youngsters can cope then we will be happy to take them unaccompanied with parental consent. If you would like to come along be aware that we are riding over Woodbury Common and it is hilly, so a reasonable level of fitness is needed even for novice riders, perhaps do some 20 mile road rides with plenty of hills first to build up a bit of stamina. The safety and mechanical function of your bike is your responsibility, please don't come if it is not up to the job, knobblies bike shop will happily look over it to give it the all clear, or otherwise if you are in any doubt. Safety is important to us and we will not be able to take you on a ride unless you have a proper well fitting bike helmet! For more information on the trails call us or go to: AFAN FOREST PARK and GLYNCORRWG PONDS 
mail us if you want to be contacted and added to the ride list, (if we haven't ridden with you before let us know a bit about your cycling experience). We do have limited numbers for each guide normally a maximun of 10 people, so as not to cause too much commotion whilst going over the common.
