Hi guys and girls

My name is Paul and new to the site so wanted to say hi

I'm in Wickford Essex and looking for places to ride

I've had a cube ltd race for a few years but only for road and a little xc not really getting out on it much but wanted to do more xc and trails / jump stuff so sold the cube and got a 2014 whyte G150
Have done some tastefull bits to it now want to get out on her

So wanted to join somewhere that I can find people and places I can ride with so I can learn trails tracks and get the most out of riding

Thanks for having me and looking forward to meeting some of you

Paul

Lovely looking bike :thumbup:

You've got Danbury just up the road with loads of Xc or Jumpy stuff, Hadliegh down the road for skills practice and Thorndon in Brentwood for some out and out XC.

Happy trails

Thanks guys

I'm loving the bike (way more then any cube I've had) I've only been on it a handful of times just been added information and changing bits before I get out on her properly

Just ordered hope mono m4's so hoping they will turn up this week

I did Hadliegh park a few weeks ago on the cube ltd comp and as a first time ride was I little nervous but that's where the want to do more XC trails and a few jumps came to light

I've tried laindon hills and it was ok but when your doing things for the first time it's hard to get a flow going and really hard to enjoy

That's why I wanted to joint here try and get out on a few places with people who have done them before

That way I can learn them and get out on them on my own at some point
Plus get a little fitter lol

Hadleigh first ride 8-)

Langdon isn't to easy to find bit's & have to pick what time to ride there.

Very popular dog walkers & runners.
