Hi,

I just joined the group, living in north London and looking to try riding trails in Epping, thought it would be much more fun to hook up with others rather than get lost on my own.

I used to race xc a very long time ago, mtbing around beds and herts after that, then periodically road riding for last while. I've recently bought a cyclocross bike now and want to see if I can have fun on some trails. Would it be ok to join in sometime or is cyclocross blasphemy here?

Few weeks ago I attempted one of the trails in Afan in south Wales and then Forest of Dean on my Kona Jake, some of it was foolish but I survived and want to try some more if that's alright with the Sunday crew?

Think you are the first cycle cross rider on here (although if you look hard enough you will ride a few secret roadies (dirty word around here I say )).

Some of the xc riding would be fine for a cycle cross bike, but others will be a bit too hard i'm afraid (more trail riding than xc), just depends on whos leading more than place.
