A Retrobike December can't be allowed to pass without a Turkey Twizzler (other meat based products may be available) so...
The Cannock Turkey Twizzler 2017 Edition
:: Date: Wednesday 27th December 2017
:: Distance/time: 18 miles or so spread out over a day's riding with plenty of stops, moaning and banter. Several short cut options available too.
:: Meeting at: Birches Valley Car Park, Cannock Chase. (£6 for the day - COIN ONLY) Please arrive by 10 a.m. for a 10.30 a.m. start.
:: Directions: Postcode: WS15 2UQ
:: Terrain: Forest trails, mainly man made. Snow, ice and pools of stinking mud with occasional outbreaks of sunshine.
:: Route: The main ride will be the 'Monkey Trail' which we should complete by mid afternoon.
After a stop for food we always say we we'll head off for some more riding and perhaps a bit of off piste stuff. We probably won't though. The lure of seasonal baked goods, mulled wine (possibly) and old bicycle tat on display (definitely) means that an extended banter session wins over more mud etc.
