A bright but chilly morning saw 8 of us set off from the station cafe after tea and coffee. Up a winding track over Pale Heights to Primrosehill Wood where we hit the trails proper. The overnight rain had made it very slippy, especially over the tree roots which abound ( Steve leads Andy and James right), but there were no serious fallers and plenty of challenges to hone the concentration.
Some of us did an extra loop down the Sandstone Trail from Summertrees, then back up the Tirley Garth bridleway to retrace and lunch at the station cafe.
Andy and I found Delamere Forest much muddier when we did a loop of it after lunch, but still very ridable. Lots of people out on new looking bikes which might have been Christmas presents. Everyone’s welcome on these Delamere rides; just turn up or get in touch. Come and have a few rides with us before you join the club.
sounds good nick – maybe tie in a bit of primrose wood
I thought we might head off in that direction first for a change – plenty to go at over that side – and I’ve found a new (less steep) way up Pale Heights
Great ride on Saturday, thanks Nick, and back in time for tea and buns!
Hoorah
Glad you enjoyed it Biggles. Was that you with the goggles and earflaps?
