WARNING TO RIDERS - 2016
Chipperfield Permissive Track north side.
On inspection of this newly laid track on Thursday 22nd, a quantity of wire and metal objects have been found. Due to the urgency of the situation we have been informed that the track will be scanned next week. CVBA Committee.
Information about the Licenced Tracks is on this page. We will be doing spot checks and ask all CVBA Track members to make sure they are carrying their disc. Please help the committee by challenging riders you think should not be on the track - tell them about membership and refer them to the website for further information.
Overgrown hedges and bridleways are now being trimmed and tidied. If you have any problems you wish to report please use our Report form here.
Links to an interesting blog about Bridleways and Riding on the Roads are on the News Page.
If you find any more trees down or need to report any other Bridleway problem there is a Green Button just above these notes that will take you to our report page.
Please wear something reflective if you're riding in rain or the dusk hours! See our Road Safety page for some ideas!
