That would be cool need a few pointers for tonights jaunt, i'm not expecting much from Throndon, just clocking up some single track miles on paths i dont know through the woods, i know to head for the kart track for parking but where do we go from there ? or is it better to park at the cafe ? is it obvious how to get on the trail ?

The go karting track is deffenty the place to park. As for the trails it a bit hard to explain where all of them are, if your on your own i would say just go and ride around Thorndon country park itself but there is so much in the other woods that make up a Thordon ride (King Goerge, donkey wood, Shenfield common, Childer ditch woods) e.g.

Big thank you to Matt for showing Marco and I round last night, was a good ride, hope i didnt hold you up too much with my huffing and puffing !!! Thorndon is a good place to ride with all sorts of terrain dotted about if you know where to look, we whizzed through it at a decent pace, looking forward to getting back over there and sessioning some of the jumps and stuff we passed :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
