Hi everyone, I've just got back into riding and building myself up to join a ride, I live in Romford so local to quite a few of you.

I've been riding solo over Bedfords Park and more recently Warley Gap which I'm enjoying as it reminds me of my BMX days back in the 80's :D

As soon as I can ride for a decent amount of time without feeling like my lungs have been kicked in I'll tag along, I'm itching to go to Danbury but need a bit longer yet to build my confidence.

Yes I believe they have but on the other side of the road there is still some good trails and jumps and also this which is great fun, the photo doesn't do it justice and it's a lot bigger than what you can see in the photo.

If you go in from behind the Ford building there is a nice trial to where the photo was taken, if you continue past this there is a few trials with berms and jumps.

Shhh, don't tell everyone in case someone levels it! I love what the trail pixies have done here though, should be drying out nicely now, the only problem is the swamp at the bottom. Nice to have a bit of technical stuff locally without having to travel so far.
Wish someone would build stuff like this in Thorndon as well but I guess that isn't going to be allowed to happen, apart from teensy bits of off piste guerilla trails.
