Did you know it’s Women’s Takeover Day at the Forest of Dean Cycle Centre this Saturday, 13th June? 🎉

We’ve got two great ways to get involved:
🛍️ A trail fundraising table sale
⛏️ A women’s-only trail dig

At our last women’s dig, we swept and improved drainage on the Red Extension of the Verderers Descent, and even added a new qualifier drop at the entrance! This time, we’ll be doing more feature building and finishing off the path sweeping.

Children are very welcome to come along too (they’ll need to stay with and be supervised by their parent/guardian at all times).

Want to join the dig or lend a hand at the table sale? Sign up via our website:

Not feeling the digging? Come and grab a bargain instead! Every penny raised goes straight back into the trails we all love to ride. 🚵‍♀️💚

It’s back! The DTV Table Sale returns this Saturday!

We’ll be set up at the Forest of Dean Cycle Centre (just by the Pedalabikeaway Café) from around 9:30am–3pm, packed with a brilliant mix of bike parts, gear, and all sorts of cycling treasures waiting for a new home.

Expect the usual friendly faces, plenty of bargains, and a great excuse to have a rummage while catching up with the DTV crew. Whether you’re after a specific upgrade or just fancy seeing what you stumble across, it’s always worth a look.

Every purchase helps support the trails we all love, so you can treat yourself and give something back at the same time 💚

See you there!

Thank you!
