Looks like I am going to be in Clapham at the weekends and want some info about riding easily accessed by train from Clapham Junction.

I am looking for xc singletrack type stuff rather than freeride...I ride a 94 kona you see...

thanks all..

You can be in Dorking for easy access to Peaslake, etc, in about 40 mins...

Get a train out to Dorking (from platform 11 I believe). They run every 30 minutes or so. Drops you on the doorstep of the Surrey Hills.

Surrey Hills + North Downs is probably best riding in S.E so plenty there.

Also can go clapham junction to martins heron then cycle round swinley forest.

Much there?! I'll think you'll find stuff for either a quick blast or all day singletrack.

best to do a bit of research before you go or hook up with others else you could be wondering what it's all about.

You can also ride at Swinley courtesy of regular trains to Martin's Heron or Bracknell, if I remember rightly.

Or you could combine all of the above! A friend recently devised, and rode, a 110 mile route doing it all, about 99% off road, should keep you busy for a morning at least.
