Hi Hoots,

Jon and I did this last year. If you go to the main car park (pick up your ticket at the entrance machine otherwise a long walk back!) near the bike shop you will see the start point (Has a big Altura Trails Arch there from recollection)

Great fun, big climbs (for me anyway) but rewarded with some great descents. Great descent towards the end of the run (prior to the road crossing on the route back)

Have fun, I will not be back there until later in the year unfortunatly.

Just got back from cannock, Was bloody good, Muddy but stil fast. Rode most of the Follow the dog with bits of Monkey trail.
Wicked riding, make sure your fit as those switch back climbs killed me.

Planning to go back again soon ish
