MBR magazine poll

Reading the April issue of MBR on the train this morning (its the issue with North and South Downs rides in it) I noticed the Riders Poll was taken in Peaslake.

Only 4 riders feature, so its hardly the most extensive survey ever under taken, but the fact that all 4 riders have London addresses just goes to show/prove how riders from the capital make up the vast majority of the traffic on trails in the North Downs. With London's population around the 6 million mark and cycling and mountain biking increasing in popularity, it adds to the reasons for taking the time to care for the trails (man made and non) in the area.

BKB - the closed bits

  • Lower part of trail blocked
    Here's some pics showing BKB - and the closed parts of the trail. Hurtwood Control have basically taken action because of the disruption the old end of the trail caused to the next door neighours, who were getting a little tired of hearing 'CLEAR!' yelled outside their bedroom window from 7am on Saturday and Sunday mornings. They were very nice about it, by the way, and are real supporters of Hurtwood. The bonus? we get to put in lots of new bits of trail, and increase the length of BKB by a high margin in the process.

Dorking West

    The new pump track at Dorking West is pretty much there - it just needs a little bit of shaping and cleaning, and it's good to go. props to oli at Head for the Hills for all the work in the background recently.
