Mountain Biking in West Sussex – Powered by Quest Adventure
Uncle Phil. It was a rather sunny day and there were 7 of us who started at the shop: Hoops, Martin, Tim, Uncle Phil, Jimbo, JCB and me – Tommo. After a quick snack grab from the shop we headed up towards Clapham Woods. Dust aplenty, we blasted through the woods at full tilt loving [...]
During the start of this batch of snowy weather I was ill and missed out on getting some snowy rides in, so I was really looking forward to the Quest ride and getting myself bogged down in some of the stuff! Although it was cold there was a good turn out down at Quest and [...]

Amazing, for this August anyway, the weather decided it was going to play ball and a day of *gasp* actual sunshine was forecast! Keen to take advantage of that the turnout was high, despite the promise of a long slog in the saddle, albeit with cake and ice cream at the end We started out [...]
