Wont be long until Friday is upon us.

The Bunkhouse is SpringHill Farm. Use the postcode SY10 7NZ.

Ill hopefully be arriving about 17:00-17:30ish.

Bring food for Friday night and booze. Nearest pub is a couple of miles away. Ill also be bringing food for Saturday night. Nothing worse than drinking on an empty stomach!

Saturday there will probably be 3 groups heading out. Lets see final numbers Friday night.

Ill lead a group, aiming to get a pace on as theres a lot of terrain to cover (plan to leave 08:45 Saturday morning). The 2 Chris's will joint lead another group and Gaz may lead a 3rd.

So what to bring....Food, Booze, Costume for Saturday night!, Towel. that's about it. Bedding IS provided.

Saturday night will aim to get back at dusk. Coach will pick us up at 19:45. And will collect from Oswestry at 01:00.

So heres where the bunkhouse is (red circle). And nearby trails highlighted to show you whats around.......

Do you have any trails in GPX format as I can run my Montana?
I'll be plodding up in the old Fiat Scudo with the little NX in the back--new rear tyre specially for the event--with security bolt for low pressure!--I need a low and light bike that will plod through all the deep ruts and bogs--and one that I can foot up the rocky stream beds--towing loops attached as well!(and a new LED headlight as I'm sure that we'll be late!). I see in the pics that there is a microwave--so that makes evening meals a little quicker and easier.

So who's up for meeting Friday afternoon?

Ill be leaving mine in Runcorn at 12:45 (about 5 mins from M11 M56). Heading to Mold and will be at the Shell station on Chester Road (CH7 1UE) for a 13:30 depart. From here is 10 mins to the first trail.

Happy for anyone to meet at either location.

Once on the trails theres a couple I need photos of for future mag green lane articles, but for the most we will have to crack on if we want to make the most of the journey in daylight.



Saturday - can everyone be fueled up please before we ride? The bunkhouse is pretty much in the sticks, and the nearest fuel is miles away and not on the route (probably Llangollen or Oswestry). There will be chance in the afternoon, but Id say thats a few hours into the ride. The ride I have is 100 miles, but it all depends how quick we move to whether we do it all. Loads of trails planned.
