Generally in the summer months the ride will be from a pub local to Delamere Forest, however the location of the Mountain Bike rides will be decided a day or two before the ride based on current weather/terrain conditions, members can access the exact detail on the WBCC Members Only Facebook group.  If you are new to the club and wish to come along as a guest, please just drop us a note via the contact us form to clarify the meeting location and we can answer any other questions you may have.
The Mountain Bike Club rides are for the more accomplished mountain biker with a good level of fitness. The ride will incorporate challenging terrain, obstacles and be at a reasonably fast pace with minimal stops.
Thursday evening rides often take place at Delamere Forest, Llandegla (Red/Black Trails) along with local rural rides from Stockton Heath.
We expect riders joining the MTB Club rides to be technically competent on challenging climbs, tricky descents and technical features such as drop-offs and large rocks.

Please note, all new riders must complete a Guest Registration Form and read the MTB guidance document before attending their first ride. No form – No Excuses – No Ride
