If anyone else wants to have a look for somewhere nearer/further/easier/with showers/pub nearby etc. by all means step in there. There are 2 camping places at dalby forest but through summer they're continuously booked up weeks in advance. I know a 20 minute drive to the campsite isn't ideal after a long day's riding, but if we get provisions ahead of days riding then at the end of the day we can just go back to camp and stuff our faces with crisps and beer..

Did you completely read past "the camp site was great"? It wasnt a slander of your organisational skillz big dawg.

The campsite was fine. It had a cracking ford that we should have used to clean the bikes in! Shenanigans!

Think Big Bear Bikes in Pickering do hire ( 01751 474220 ) - they also do night-time rides in the forestry.
