Here are our top tips for a great day out on the trails:

• Wear a helmet and other protective gear.
• Make sure your bike is in full working order.
• Respect other riders.
• Pack the essentials: first aid kit, water, snacks, pump, repair kit, fully charged mobile phone.
• Always ride within your limits.
• First aid will not always be available on site. Know your location at all times and have a mobile phone to call for help. 
• Respect others using the forest - be aware of walkers and horse riders you may come across during your ride.

Whilst out on the trails, if you come across any maintenance issues please report them to: fodtrails@forestryengland.uk
