Lanes in shropshire

[GhostCav]

As the bike still has the TKC's on & I'm long weekend off work I've been looking at doing some lanes tomorrow. Still new to riding the GSA offroad so nothing knarly required. Anyone got any suggestions or want to come with me & show me them? Short notice I know.

I did some fantastic lanes about 5 years ago in the Jeep over Ludlow way. Middle of winter & deep snow but seemed mostly easy going & possibly good for the bike. Alas I cannot remember where the hell it was as I was following the Jeep infront who had all the maps. All I recall is that it went alongside fields & then up a load of hills & down the other side with a few roads inbetween but it was still about 15miles in total.

Personally I just want to get more experience on the GSA offroad as quite frankly I'm a tad crap at it so far.

Something very easy for you to do would be Offa's Dyke between LLanfair Hill and Garbet Hall.
There are also a lot of easy farm tracks between the Long Mynd and the Stiperstones.

I'd be interested in tagging along sometime but it's a bit late to be seeking permission now.

LOL, You wuss! Go & wake her up & ask.


Or maybe not.

Gaz,
Cheers for the info, will look into those lanes/tracks. Maybe I need to plan it a bit better. A map would probably be a good idea as well.

PM me an email address and I can help you out.

You should also try and get to the UKGSER meeting at Llangollen on the Saturday (May 16th) when an easy trail ride for GS's is being arranged.

Hi Gaz,
I will send you my email in a minute. As for Llangollen, still trying to get time off work as I'm booked in all weekend typically.
Hopefully I can get there though.
