Been out for a ride with a few guys on this site over high beech. You should come along its great for fittness and a laugh.

I would b interested in meeting up for a ride although don't really know the woods round broxbourne/ wormley that well, although originally from Waltham cross but now living in Harlow.

Hi Laura
Is High Beech in Harlow? Do you usually meet up
Weekends or in the week?

I'm just doing short rides a couple of nights a week
At the moment but, you always do a bit more when
Your with others.

When are you heading out next? Broxbourne woods is pretty
Good. Worth a visit.

Liz

Hi Liz

High beech is near Epping, which is about 20mins or so away from here. Prob bout the same distance from here to broxbourne too. I tend to go out weekends mostly or as im a postie usually free in afternoons and evenings!

Probably will try and head out this weekend. Depending on weather. If your around we should meet up.

What kinda riding do u like doing? Been doing mostly single track at the moment but need to train more on hills!!

Hi Guys,

I am normaly in broxbourne woods during the week, I am training for a 75k marathon in July....Look out for a back and white Mini Clubman. I am normaly around the back of Broxbourne woods on a Red MTB, Just shout if you see me!

Hi Jay

I should of done the Bucks 132k recently but missed it.
I would like to train towards another. Which one are you doing Jay?

Hi Laura

Me and my Hubby are babysitting this weekend so
I will probably be stuck this weekend.

I would be ok for next weekend.

Iv been doing a bit of singletrack. I need to build my
Confidence a bit on technical parts. I also need more hill work. 

I have done all of last years stages of the crc Marathon sections have a look at there web site they are great fun!.

This year I have done stage 1 and 2 but not looking forward to Marshbrook look nasty lol 85k allot of hill work!!

Jay

The Crc marathons look cool. Def might give them ago next year!

Liz next weekend sounds good, hopefully should get my new handlebars on bike by then.

Hi All

i am new to riding and just riding the roads around Harlow where i live, and also looking to meet people to ride with, Same as Liz i am currently trying to build up my fitness. Keep thinking about trying out Epping! Is it a good place to start out at?


thanks Aiders

What bike have you got Laura? Have you gone for
The girlie option. I nearly did but then changed my mind.

It's not your postie bike is it ? Lol.

Aiders, saying how close to Epping I am I haven't been but,
I believe it's pretty good for all abilities. Probably best to go
With someone who knows a decent route.

Ive got a kona Lisa ds. Had it about 3 years or so now, so i guess kinda girlie but does't feel it! It's a full sus, helps on the tree routes over Epping!!
How bout u liz?

Have contemplated about postie bike on trails, handy on storage but weighs a ton!!!! Lol

Aiders where bout in Harlow r u? I'm in church Langley. Epping is really good, been on a couple of rides with some guys on here. It's really good, they don't leave anyone behind.

If you are in Harlow and want to do some rides for fitness i help run a club in the town and we do 2 rides a week aimed at people getting back into cycling and wanting to improve fitness. the rides are really easy going and social but good preparation for a sunday morning at epping. if you are interested pm me and i will send you some details. also it is national bike week next week, which means we have rides organised for every evening.

Neil,

I would be interested too. Harlow is not too far for me.

Laura,

I looked at the kona Lisa as the local bike shop is a Kona dealer. I really liked it but, iv always loved Specialized. I am now on my 4th bike (I get bored easily). Iv got a Specialized FSR XC Expert. I really like it. Will probably change it though soon, ha!

Has anyone been up to Cannock "Chase trrails"? That is is brill!! I hope to get up there next month if anyone would be interested? If you have not heard of it google chase trails or follow the dog.

Liz

cycledealia by any chance ?
