Hi,

I am new to mountain biking and have just purchased a pretty average bike but do enjoy getting out around as much as i can and was just wondering if i could hook up for a ride possibly round the Thorndon/Epping area as i am a begineer and would like fellow minded people to ride with. Anyone getting about soon? I will have a skid lid by the time i get out next,

Steve

Hi steve

I'm pretty new at this too, in fact only been out 3 times ever

I have a couple of friends who are also new to it, we are all in our 30s. we have been going to Thorndon and u are welcome to Join us as long as you don't expect any tips as we are hopeless but all have fun

I will PM u my number later, I'm pretty sure we will be out either Sunday or Monday as its a bank holiday

However i pretty sure you will get other offers from far more experienced riders too

Cheers

Stephen

Hi All,

New to the forum but have been riding around Thorndon for the last few years most weekends.

Think I have seen you guys dozens of times and said hello as we have flown past each other on the trail, so this is a long over due proper introduction!

Would be good to meet up on Sunday 6th May at 10:00 as well if that's OK?

Phil
