Its a public wood because its owned by the forestry commision. But the 8% (or however much it is) that the guys in the chicksands biking committee is for public but bikers only. Sure your allowed in, nobody's gonna tell you to f*ck off cause you dont have a bike but that section of the woods is paid for on an annual basis buy the guys in the committee. They pay something like £2500 a year just to keep the land. All the upkeep is in their own free time. When I go im happy to pay by choice because they've put in so much hard work just to give us a place to ride.

You probably didnt get asked by a warden or you'd gone on a weekday.

But for £5 for a whole day and thats only on weekends its not like its bank-breaking.

Plus if you collect 10 Day tickets and present them to a warden, you get a years membership for free. So dont throw them away!

Take the p2.

Full suspension bikes can be a little overkill for Chicky. Theres some big drops and gaps in the free ride area though these are easily doable on a hardtail!
