Note: I have not received any parental permission forms yet, you will need Cycle Protective Equipment as this is proper off road cycling, Helmet, Gloves, Glasses etc - you may need to carry a drink or have chocolate type snacks whilst cycling.
Please bring what food you want to BBQ, we'll provide the means of cooking it, this can be left in Jim' car for you to meet at half time rather than carrying on the bike.
There is available at cost 'go ape' @ the visitors centre, there is also a free bike park for the extreme cycle experience - however I would need written parental consent stating you go on these obstacles at your own risk and absolve scouting of any responsibility.
