Red Trails at FOD

For those of you who watch Global Mountain Biking Network (GMBN) on youtube, you will recognise Cannop Cycle centre in the forest of dean. This is a great mountain biking trail centre with something for everyone. 

for those of your who don't know about FOD check out their website here: https://www.forestryengland.uk/forest-dean-cycle-centre

On this ride, we will be doing the red mountain bike trail called the Freeminers trail, an 11.3Km (7Miles) suitable for Proficient mountain bikers with good off-road riding skills & fitness. Good mountain bikes (taken from the website).

This is an afternoon activity starting at 1300pm. It will take approximately 2-3 hours to complete the ride and we will finish at the start point. You will need to pay for parking.

There are also a number of downhill trails graded from 1 dot to 3 dot, I will not be leading these trails, however, you are welcome to experience these at your leisure. 

There is a cafe on-site for both hot and cold food and drinks, alternatively, you can bring your own. 

I am leading a ride on the blue trail in the morning you can view this event here.

If you have any questions about this ride, please feel free to drop me a message. 

 If the weather is bad then the ride will get postponed and I will look for another suitable date
