Hello,

My name is Jake and I live in East London. I've always been on a bike of some sort but I want to get back on the trails. I've been in London for a while now and I'd like to start riding properly again so It'd be good to meet anyone who is already riding in the area. I used to ride mostly BMX street/park/trails and MTB freeride, trails, all- mountain. I have seen some insane urban down hill and was wondering if anyone is doing that in London?

I'd love to go riding soon but don't really know of any sessions/trails/spots/parks/events for someone eager to get back into the scene and meet some new people.

Any advice on bikes too would be cool. I like the Transition Bottlerocket but I'm just getting back into it so would be happy with a cheaper option, does anyone have any suggestions? Scott Voltage FR? What do you guys ride? Thanks for anything you've got on this.

Really looking forward to some trail-time,

Jake.

Hi Jake, keep an eye on the ride outs on here people ride all over so there will be something for you.
do you drive or is it public transport ?

BR or a Voltage fr would be good choices as they are pretty strong to take a lot of hucking.

i haven't done any urban riding for years, when i lived in leyton i always found whipps cross hospital a brilliant place to play as they have so many stair sets, low walls and loading bays to jump off of i don't know if thats local to you ?
