Try Pangbourne and Thatcham in Berkshire.

They certainly got some available if you're not far from there

Some of the trails at Cannock are nice and smooth, even some red trails can be done on a half decent hardtail bike mate, have a look into it, I'm about 15 mins from Cannock could meet up and have a shred!

I wouldn't have a clue about anything mechanical mate, I end up breaking things even more with anything I try and fix myself! would be fairly cheap to nip into a bike shop and get it sorted mate.

Just had a google, will deffo be trying both out, theres a few bike parks there too!

Not too bad really, 2 hour drive.

Cheers.

Dalby Forest

Home to over 8,500 acres of breath-taking views, endless walking, running and cycle trails and Gruffalo adventures, a great day out awaits at Dalby Forest.A visit to Dalby will uncover many magical things such as The Gruffalo orienteering course, Room on the Broom Trail, some of the very best...

No a biker at all.
But went to Sherwood Punes about 6 years ago. We was in Center Parcs and a couple of lads were keen bikers. So I joined them on my rented bike.

I was fooked afterwards.
