Hi all,

I'm located Tidworth side of the plain and am struggling to find any decent single track, I've found the odd bit but a lot seems to be getting churned up by guys on motor bikes and is very damp. Any clubs rides head out anywhere locally?

Thanks guys, unfortunately I'm busy this weekend, I'll keep an eye out for future events though.

The Tidworth freeride place isn't really my scene, I may well try it out sometime though.

SpikyJames, still might be worth going to Tidworth freeride, as the few times I have been there some of the guys have offered to show me around the area outside of the freeride area.

Also might be worth popping into behind the bike shed in Andover, Ruby or Scott might be able to help, as they like a bit of XC riding.

motor bikes/4x4 are a problem around the plain, it's a big area for a few people to be every where

Edric where are you based?

I know the plain like the back of my hand and ride all the best stuff every sunday, I'm in collingbourne Kingston and meet a mate at DMED at 9.00am we have made tons of tracks over the last couple of years and keep them hidden from the MX bikes if you want a guided tour of all our secret stuff and the best of everything else let me know.

Im in upavon and do alot of riding on the plain to link up much good single track usually involves covering some distance unless you stay up in the woods around tidworth.
