National rides in our area

[daj]

Just a quick heads up there are two national rides coming up in the West Midlands area

Mountain bike in the Forest of Dean on Saturday October 12th lead by Forest of Dean Mtb guides AKA James and his forest bandits .

Road ride in the Cotswolds which will be on Saturday November the 2nd lead by myself.

Look out for the main threads for details and discussions will post up the links here when they have been launched.

Cheers

I looked at the National dates at the beginning of the year and as there were no mtb rides in our area I didn't look again. I look at the regional dates on a regular basis, and there is no mention of the October National ride there.

As Matt is already booked elsewhere and THM PM'ed me yesterday about the mtb ride (which neither of us knew about), I'd say I'm not the only one who's been caught out.

IIRC the ride was originally posted in the national mtb calendar as a Cotswolds ride on either 12th/13th October. I don't do Sunday rides so happy that it's fallen on the Saturday and also happy enough to be riding at the FoD as it's been two years since I rode there last.

So I'm in, hope some of you lot can make it.
