Wednesdays After Work at Croft @ Croft Cycle Trail | England | United Kingdom

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 🙂

Our usual Wednesday visit to Croft will incorporate some skills practice this week.

After a warm up lap, we will do a development lap. This will involve doing a lap of the trail stopping at certain obstacles to practice our skills: rock gardens, cornering & small jumps. There is also an option to practice drops if anyone fancies that too.
After that we will finish with a quick lap to blend all the practice together.

We’re at Croft on Wednesday evening as usual, for some laps of the trail and practice on the trail features 😊
 
Meet in the Croft car park at 5.30pm – note the slightly earlier time, as we’re trying to make the most of the fading light.
 
You will need a helmet and you’ll get away without lights till about 7pm, but you’ll want them after that – it gets dark very fast in those trees!

We’ve got another weekend session at Croft coming up.

This is a perfect opportunity to try a mountain bike trail if you haven’t before, or just to reintroduce yourself if it’s been a while (it’s been a pretty grotty winter!).

We will have at least 2 ride leaders there, doing ladies only and mixed groups of all abilities.

We will meet in the Croft Car Park at 10.30am

Please bring a helmet

We will start with a lap of the Blue trail to warm up, then sees what people want to do next. The options will be to head over the motorway to Wroughton for a couple of laps of the new pump track there, do a practice trip up and then down Ladder Lane, or just more laps of Croft.

This a very relaxed ride, at an easy pace, with lots of opportunities to develop and practice skills. Everyone is welcome and this is a great introductory ride if you’re just starting or coming back to mountain biking.

You must bring a helmet, but you don’t need lights yet 😊
Also thoroughly recommend insect repellent!

We will do some skills demonstrations and practice, using the features of the trail. We may also venture up Ladder Lane for a bit of root and faster descending practice, or over to the pump track at Wroughton if it’s a muddy one.
 
You must bring a helmet and lights too.

APOLOGIES EVERYONE, BUT TONIGHTS EVENT IS CANCELLED
Sorry, but due to ride leader unavailability (due to sick child!), I’ve had to cancel tonight’s ride. 
=========================================

We’re back for a Wednesday Night session at Croft.
The trail takes on a different vibe in the dark – loads of fun still with a bit of extra spice that comes from riding with lights 🙂
The tight nature of the trail keeps you on your toes too!
 
We’ll be taking easy as usual for Wednesday nights, so perfect if you’ve not been night riding before and going round as a group boosts the available light too.
 
Needless to say you’ll need lights for this ride, a helmet as always and current forecast suggests waterproofs as well.
 
Meet in the car park at 5.45pm
