Hello all.
I am new to the area and quite excited to try out the surrounding trails. I've heard good things about TIMBER MTB and would love to learn the trails and find a riding group. However, I haven't been on the bike for a while so I may be a bit rusty.
For the upcoming Night Ride, do I need to be of a specific skill level or any other requirements to join?

I think it's safe to say, 'there are riders of mixed abilities' ....... :smile:

I'm trying to attend every fortnight and if I'm there, you won't be the last! I tend to be tail end charlie! We normally choose a route where the fit ones can do an extra loop or two while others catch their breath.

As I attended this week, I won't be there for the 28th... :sad:
No, no... I've seen it done....

I'll be finishing my last nightshift that morning so I'll be up for riding for as long as anyone likes, Ash(?), don't worry about speed and as far as stamina goes just let us know how you're going and we'll tailor a route to suit. A series of loops out from BCP should do the trick, meaning you can bail without being miles out from base, just let us know how you're feeling. ........ we'll make sure you get back :goodidea:

Are you getting back before dark now or are lights still needed?
