The inaugural Ladies weekend ride will be on Saturday 28th May.
We will be starting at the Village Inn in Liddington (where parking is available) and doing a 12 mile route via Chisledon and Route 45 to the Croft trail. On the way back we will stop at Coate for coffee and toilets, before returning to Liddington through Badbury.
Before we set off we will be doing bike safety checks and there’s the option of lunch at the Village Inn on our return.
All abilities welcome – laps of Croft are optional, or we can go round the outside of the trail on the bridleway, depending on what people want to do.
This will be an uplift day and starts at 9.30am, so be there early to get prepped, sign in etc
This is about 1 hour 30 min car drive (from swindon), so if you’re lift sharing allow time for pick ups.
Uplift ticket price is £36, but you can a pedal up ticket for £6.
You will need a helmet – they are compulsory at Bike Park Wales, and if you are fancying the rocky reds or black runs, a full face helmet is advisable.
Tickets sell out months in advance and you will need to book your own, so get in quick on the link below.
The Forest of Dean is one of my favourite places to ride, as not only does it have some of the best trails to be found, but it also has the warmest of welcomes and the best atmosphere that I’ve been too.
If you’ve been before you’ll know that already, so here’s another chance for you to go and if you haven’t been, you need to!!! And here’s your chance.
Join me on the trails for some shredding fun!! Everyone is welcome and the trails provide something for all abilities.
If you are new to mountain biking this is the perfect opportunity to see how much fun it can be! 🚴♀️
Meet outside the Pedalabikeaway cafe at 10.30am
As well as SMTBE, I’m also a Breeze champion and I’m doing a nice easy and scenic ride from Chiseldon to Marlborough. This is perfect for beginners and those that want a lovely gentle social ride with other lady riders.
We will be at Croft as usual this Wednesday evening.
With out wanting to curse it, the weather looks a bit better than previous weeks, so fingers crossed!
We will be doing a few laps, stopping to session some of the skills stuff along the way. Inevitably that inlcudes some jumps and the rock garden, but if anyone want’s to improve their cornering or have a go at conquering Pete’s steps, we can do that too.
Davinia will be there too leading any ladies that want to join her.
Meet in the car park at 5.45pm – you’ll need a helmet, but not lights 🙂
Whilst Adrian is doing his ‘Best Bits’ at Swinley, I’ll be joining the lovely Swinley ladies ride!
These are very well organised and friendly rides, with groups for all abilities at a great trail centre.
It’s friendly and fun and the best bit of our ride is we get a glass of prosseco after!! 
🍾
The rides start from the Swinley Bike Hub at 10am – you’ll need to be there a little earlier to register.
