Info for Chase riders - The vandals in green (FC) have this week wrecked one of my fav cheekies. On Strava it's called Sticky's Trail and starts not far from the Trig Point and cuts across The Dippers exiting on the long drag away from Sher Brook. Its the section before you cross the Dippers, very tight and twisty. They have cut three or four swathes through the pines where the trail runs and have virtually obliterated the trail in places. I can only see one reason for this and that's to feck it up = TWATS.

Is that the run that exits onto the blue through the ferns??? Almost looks like you stepped through the wardrobe and into Narnia?? If so what utter bastards

I've probably rode it with Jay, but I can never remember where we've been on a ride normally. Still a shame though.

Stand with the trig point on your right looking down the blue route towards the carpark, walk forwards till you see a bit of fire road on your right. Walk down this fire road and a well rode cheeky goes straight across the path, keep going but look to the right and you will see the entrance to it. If you go to far you get back on the blue

Playing devil's advocate here, but it may have been destroyed now as the FC may plan to do some work in that area and won't want people riding it when they start felling/whatever they're doing.

Seriously, haven't a clue where you're on about. It's just up from the Scout Hut where 5 tracks converge. If you say what Scout Hut, I'll know you are taking the piss

Have you ever rode the blue route, cus if you have then you have had to see the scout hut and the trig point. The fc have been working on the road by the scout hut recently (they probably recked the cheeky for a laugh one boring lunch time). Its not far from tackeroo. I think the ATC also use the hut as I've seen kids in the military stuff there to.

The Stafford side 'locals' I know all ride it. You'll have to get yourself across the Penkridge Bank Rd - the Chase isn't all about the Donkey

I also have no idea! I'm assuming the dippers are the ones by the pond/lake thingy?
