Forest of Dean Family Cycle Trail (fast forward)
Forest of Dean family cycle trail starting at the pedalabikeaway cycle centre. This video is played at 10x normal speed. The trail is about ten miles long and would normally take between one and a half and two hours to complete.
You get an idea of the gradients from the speed of the video. Note the tarmac section is part of a car park and not a public road.

Family Cycle Trail - ALICE HOLT FOREST
Forest of Dean ????Family Trail
So I got up to Forest of Dean and hit the family trail with my wife and kids. It's a nice little trail with a few little parts off to the side in places where the kids ( and adults ) can brush up on their skills. My kids loved it and so did the wife.

Family cycle ride. 11 miles. Forest of Dean. the whole lot, not speeded up
July 2018 version here. Better Full HD camera at 60FPS
I found this on forestry website a few weeks ago when looking for some rides in the forest of Dean. I thought must have a go. 11 miles or 17.5km the notice board at the start says.
Old railway lines. Nothing hard, nice long straights. 5 year olds where doing this. I did in 38 minutes or so.
About 32 miles of cycling on Tuesday 16th august 2016.
when finished about 3.30pm I had only 4 miles left on the bike range and that's was on a lower power. It did get a hammering on Verderer's trail I did 3 times, also on here as a video.
Nearest postcode. GL16 7EH
A little café, bike repairs, toilets, shower and a place to hire bikes as well. I noticed a compressed air line with bike inner tube valve inflater/gauge thingy (technical term). A bike washdown as well. Also some tools on cables bolted to the wall.
A nice area with picnic tables right by the little café.
A good day out on my own.
Even got the phone geocaching app to bring up a geocache on the live map (when signal was going, most of the time nothing on 3 or Vodafone, I bought both phones).
I have a Scott e Aspect 910 with a bosch performance line electric drive system.
The gpx file made by the garmin unit on the handlebars can be downloaded here on the dropbox link. Download and open up in google earth. open google earth and then file, open, make sure gpx type file is selected opposite open bar and open 11 mile family route, where ever you saved that.
Right click on blue line (route) and elevation profile is good.

Forest of Dean, Forest of Adventure... #MyForestofDean
Are you ready for an adventure? The Forest of Dean is a natural outdoor playground. Wander through miles of ancient woodland, venture deep into the cave systems below or try something new such as kayaking, archery, or even handling a hawk.
Then feel the rush of soaring birds of prey overhead, or your mountain bike beneath you as you bump along a trail. From heritage railway attractions which younger visitors will adore, to open-air sculpture trails, craft centres and pretty pub gardens, this is a place for tots, teens, friends, families, new couples, retired couples, and everyone in between.

Forest of Dean... Make it Yours #MyForestofDean
With the days lengthening, the buds bursting and the Severn Crossings toll free we’d like to invite you to watch our film and make a date to come over the bridge to the Forest of Dean and experience it all for yourself soon.
We hope this exciting new footage shows our area off in all its glory, a natural outdoor playground where you are invited to ‘make it yours’ through heritage, adventure, nature, taste and of course, a lot of fun along the way.
Climb to the top of a hill for an epic view of seven counties, wander through ancient woodland, cosy up in a forest cabin with a hot tub, taste delicious artisan food and award-winning wines, try something new such as kayaking, caving, archery or even handling a hawk.
Then feel the rush of soaring birds of prey overhead, or your mountain bike beneath you as you bump along a trail. From heritage railway attractions which younger visitors will adore, to open-air sculpture trails, craft centres and pretty pub gardens, this is a place for tots, teens, friends, families, new couples, retired couples, and everyone in between.

The Future Of British Mountain Biking Is In The Forest Of Dean. Meet The New Athertons
During a brief trip back home to Wales I had the chance get out on a ride with an old school friend, James and his family. Or to put it another way, The (new) Athertons :) Both kids, Bella (8) and Ioan (10) race regularly at the Forest of Dean trail center, even Mum Nanette races!
The kids were little rippers and afraid of nothing. Ioan especially enjoyed giving me tips on my appalling jumping technique. I had such an awesome time, I really did. I didn't want it to end.
I need to get back to the UK this year to get some serious riding in. Any suggestions where?

Downhill MTB Trails Forest of Dean
Fod downhill trails are plentiful and have loads of fun flowy sections with some decent jumps and tech lines.
Forest of Dean Cycle Centre is just outside of South Wales Near Gloucester. There is a large car park which is around £5 per day (ish).
There are other free parking areas scattered around the large forest.
The post code below will take you to the main centre which has an on site bike shop, hot food, bike wash and home of the Uplift service.
The uplift service gets very busy during weekends, you can book here...
Or you can pedal/push to the top of the DH trail head in about 30 mins.
In the bike park there is roughly 7/8 DH trails that vary in difficulty and all have multiple splits on the way down. There is nothing super gnarly here but enough for the trails to test every ability of rider.
There is also a skills area to practice on aswell as a pump track and a couple of fun Enduro/xc loops at about an 1hr loop each.
If you fancy trying something else other than biking then there is a Go Ape and plenty of walkers trails. If you want to try biking they do bike hire from the on site shop and there is a family trail to cruise on.
Here is a video featuring the skills area,pump track and free miners loop -
