Hi all,

Done FTD and Monkey Trail a few times so was looking to do something a bit longer in the Chase. I've seen this route: http://www.mbr.co.uk/routes/midlands...ownload-318137

Anyone have the GPX file for this? Will it still be fully rideable as it was created 4 years go?.

Would be interested in any other GPX routes for Cannock too.

I'm in Stoke-On-Trent, ride Hanchurch woods/Silverdale Country Park and Downs Banks regularly. Any other routes/trails in Staffordshire? (other than the Peaks which I find mostly too rocky).

Thanks.

Happy to show you all sorts of off piste stuff. If you're stoke based, if you haven't already go and see keV and Alex at spokes bikes as they're top boys and always do a good group ride with quite a few rides over Cannock and loads of evening rides locally

Thanks, do you use strava or any other app to record your rides so I can get some ideas?

Wouldn't bother with the MBR route , it's basically alot of fire road on the blue trail with the dog ,monkey and stile cop thrown in , have a look on just go ride there's a couple of old Evans routes which you can use as a base ,still bits of fire road but no where near as much as the MBR one

Thanks so much for this I had completely forgotten about the Evans Cycles events there!.

Not a problem ,if you use the medium route as a base you can spend weeks finding some mint singletrack off it , after this week's weather it might be a bit boggy up round the German cemetery but the rest is rideable or take my last route off Strava think it was back in may (Garmin refusing to sync since then ) Stuart Dean on strava
