Have done allot of walking around Boxhill and found no DH tracks. the only thing I know that is XC around there is the "Dorking West Airbourne Division" check out there page on Facebook for more details.
Was thinking about going and giving it a ride at some point. Looks a laugh! |

Would love to go Tilgate at some point, looks awesome.
I was chatting to some people about box hill (near maidstone?) at Bedgebury as they were locals there. There is a DH run using some bombholes and has some gnarly drops aparently but it wasn't very clear on the location. Sorry! _________________

ben, i think you mean boxley woods over that way, a few of the guys I ride with built the place and it supposed to be pretty good if your localish..
Good to hear Tilgates improved since the one hit wonders we used to play on.
Off to Porc tomorrow all day, I had a cracking time riding there Sunday during the 4x. having not ridden there for 4 years I reckon its a little underated and too easily dissed.. Got a date with a Step down into fucking huge double !!!  |
