This will be a local XC ride, pump up to Barbury, Ufcott (perhaps Bicknoll), Mill Lane, West Swindon and Wroughton.
There will be some hills involved 🙂
We will be at Croft on Wednesday, but starting at the slightly later time of 6.15pm.
We will be doing a few laps of the trail, stopping to practice anything people want to along the way.
Meet in the car park at 6.15pm
You will need a helmet, but not lights.
Nothing too extreme weather wise it seems, so we will be doing a ridgeway route. Wet and slippery ground conditions are likely though.
We will do a 30k route, with the usually amount of ridgeway hills.
You will need lights and a helmet, waterproof jacket/tools/puncture repair – all the usual accessories…
We are holding our AGM on Wednesday 10th January at 7pm at The Plough in Wanborough.
Wednesdays are one of our #getintoMTB events, designed to help people get started, get back into MTB or anyone wanting a shorter, flatter ride. But there’s plenty of fun for all abilities.
The evening will be split into two parts:
6-7pm will be a Croft trail ride, laps of the trail (sessioning some of the features along the way)
7pm-8pm will be a local, fairly flat route, less than 10km in total.
PLEASE LET US KNOW BY POSTING BELOW IF YOU INTEND ONLY ATTENDING THE 7PM RIDE, so that we know to wait for you, as we leave promptly.
Under 18’s are allowed on this ride unaccompanied, as long as you have been out with us before. If you haven’t and wish to come, please drop an email to welfare@swindonmtbenthusiasts.co.uk so we can let you know the process for signing up to these rides.
As with all our rides, Helmets are compulsory.
Meet in the Croft Trail car park for both rides
