Hey guys :)

Me and a mate are going to be taking a few days off work to go a little tour of all the best spots around, before he goes off to Whistler for a year (Bastard :p)

Was just wondering if anyone had anything to add, we'll be riding 26" jump bikes more than likely as they're the most versatile thing we have, but I prefer more freeride/downhill stuff than just doubles :)

So far i'm thinking:

From Colchester:

Day 1 AM - Danbury
Day 2 PM - Warley
Day 2 AM - Chicksands
Day 2 PM - Woburn Sands
Day 3 - Aston Hill

Anyone know of any good spots inbetween the current stops, or any advice or pretty much ANY advice would be great :)

Cheers,

Dan

Would you say Aston Hill is worth a full day on Jump bikes?

Cause i'll be doing the driving so we could just leave it out, driving home after 3 days of heavy biking won't be too fun lol :p

You'll never be able to spend a full day at Chicky without getting bored. Unless theyve done a mass of digging over the winter that is.
