Hey people

I've posted in here before but it was a while back now, not sure if I should be posting here again but I've just moved to Southminster and looking to start riding again. I'm a big noob really to mtb but was thinking of getting the train to Brentwood at some point to try Thorndon as there is nothing around Southminster.
Would love to meet up with someone to be shown the ropes, again I'm a new to it so just making sure it's out there?

Hi Matey,

Not sure when i'll be back in Thorndon but rode there Sunday and its running superb.
I can put up a GPX file so you could follow on a Garmin if that helps?

Hey dude

Yeah that would be cool if it not to much trouble.
I went over there Sunday but ended up riding in circles as it it was all new to me and wasn't sure which way to go.
I did head over to warley but went down some very speedy trail which was fun but didn't know where to go at the end so I just turned round and went back.
