Cannock Chase

We drove up from Bristol for a few hours and were a bit surprised how much fun we had at Cannock. I think we both underestimated it a little - although I'm still carrying a lot of excess flab from Christmas. Anyway, we both left well-pleased with the ride. It's great fun for a novice/intermediate rider. Some great flowing sections and a few significant challenges here and there on the second trail (Monkey). We went in mid-Feb and the trail was pretty quiet and in great condition considering recent weather, but can imagine it gets busy in the summer, given the location. All-weather trail - but nice to see some mud and rooty sections! Finally, the centre is great, too, with cafe/toilets and shop with pretty much all you'd need. Def worth a visit - do a couple of laps to make a day of it!

What do you like?

Good % singletrack and good flow throughout Some surprisingly decent technical challenges - esp on Monkey All weather

What could be improved?

Can imagine it gets busy in spring/summer Pretty flat if you're used to Wales (but they've done a brilliant job considering location!)

Would you recommend?

*Yes*
