Where do you guys park when you go to Cannock? If you want free parking, head to Marquis Drive, there is loads of space, plus you start on the best section of The Dog!

Badbury Bumps? Never heard of it
We found some excellent trails at Woburn. Didn't go near the freeride area.

Nice - you'd have probably seen Tom Dowie there. He's been doing the coaching/guided rides there. Rides local at Chicksands. Not the bestest of mates, but known him since teenages as we were both junior committee members at Chicksands.

Gavin Good effort! Did many take the far left option in that photo? For me that was the most worrying part of the course! Had a chap brake a collar bone when we were there and we weren't even racing!

yep met up with him and john again. First met tom at a coaching day there last year. ridden swinley with him since as well when i bumped into him again. top bloke always up for a chat and very handy on a bike to boot haha
i was doing the left line as it was quicker and smoother exit. just have to keep left off the top to avoid hanging up and nose it in smoothly. think the deanes drop section or rock garden were the biggest challange

Mate has a Saracen areil 16x in black with good bits. Decent bike though he isn't too happy with the rear pivot as it seems to flex.
