Despite the lack of follow-up posts here, three of us braved a crisp Saturday morning to give the MTBs a spin. After a brief tour of Coulsdon suburbia, Aodan took Taz and me on a very scenic loop taking in Banstead, Epsom Downs and Tadworth. Really good conditions, with mostly dry trails and hardly any other traffic, except for a couple of close encounters with horses near the race track. Finished up with as close as I ever get to a "sprint" on the MTB to avoid a chilly half-hour wait for the next train, and made it safely home refreshed and relatively warm. Thanks to Aodan and Taz for the faultless routefinding and good company.
