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 is a nice relaxed fun race over 20km round Swinley Forest on the edge of Bracknell. It’s an Enduro race, with 7 timed downhill stages that are timed, but a more relaxed pace transferring between them. Should be great fun for all and a great opportunity for first time racers.
We have a number of club members of all abilities, men and ladies, taking part, so why not come join us?

We’ll be back at Croft this Wednesday after work for a few laps and then seeing as it’s close to Christmas, we’re going to the pub!
We’ve met some great people since we started doing this in the spring, so if anyone wants to join us for a Christmas drink / bite to eat, we will be heading to the Baybury in Wichelstowe for 7pm. Everyone is most welcome – for the ride or just coming to the pub.
Don’t worry if you’ve not been before – it’s a great opportunity to come and talk to us about the club and what we do too.
Meet at Croft Trail Car Park at 6pm for riding and the Baybury in Wichelstowe for food and drink at 7pm.
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 🙂
