Hi Rob I have only just seen your post, but I also live in Alfreton, on Nottingham Rd opposite the petrol station. Where are you? I have had a Trek Rail 5 since March 21 Dave

Does anyone fancy a ride this Saturday 22nd around the Chatsworth area starting from Rowsley? Free car parking;) I have an 18 mile route taking in varied terrain.

Thanks Steve for planning and leading another brilliant day out with great people:) Hopefully, also, count me in for any future rides🚴‍♀️

Hi Steve Count me in, all being well. Always great well planned casual rides on more remote areas and trails

Pencil me in please Mike, I will let you know for definite nearer the day:)

Thank Steve for a great ride, well the half of it that I managed. Perhaps falling off 6 weeks after I fractured my collar bone was not the best idea :oops:

I am all for being shown around, starting with some of the easier routes:). I have been to Black rocks many times (walking dogs, not MTB though) Unfortunately I cant make tomorrow as I am away for the weekend and recovering from a fractured collarbone:( I will message you to arrange some other...

Steve took me around some of the route on Friday and even though I wasn't fully fit there was nothing overly difficult, but it is imperative to keep concentration.

Count me in :) Having been shown and ridden some of the route yesterday I can concur with Steve that it may not be suitable unless you're confident and competent on all of the red trail and the downhills.

I will be doing the red route but relatively steady (no jumps anyway ;)) as I fractured my collar bone 4 weeks ago

I'm planning for a ride at Pines on Friday (27th) if anyone is around to meet up, aiming to be there about 11am :)

Although they are called 'mountain' bikes surely it is all about having fun and not how many mountains you can climb ;) and we certainly had fun yesterday :)

Thanks Steve for a fantastic day out with a great bunch of people :) I dont think I will be able to find any of those off piste trails again on my own so when is the next one?

Unfortunately he has a poorly foot so isnt even managing to be analogue never mind e :(

I've only just seen this thread. Currently having a conversation in the rideouts section and keen to go to Sherwood pines for the first time.
