Had a good ride today, was very wet up there, plenty of mud. After having a brew with the sausage butty and chatting wesite stuff we got naked in the carpark, slipped into the go faster lycra and met up with Taffydoo22, Ormite, Dan & Rob2284. We headed out on the Red/Black. Not as busy as I thought it would be today considering there was a demo day. Credit crunch ;D Some pics. Taffydoo22 Ormite Rob Sausage butty Oggy While stood at the top of JJ's jumps I heard a massive bang from the woods, FTASB did it again, managed to trash his bike on a ride, Again! ;D   Thing is he wasnt riding, it was being pushed  After a fancy repair by Taffydoo he was back on the road. Oh and Dan broke his bike too.  The start of JJ's. Oggy, Dan & Rob    Cheers lads, wa a good day, And Im well chuffed with me bike, handled a treat. £2.50 for beans on toast |

Hello again all.
Like I said, it was a shame we were running late and when we had seen you ride off we thought we would have a look around the shop as I wanted a base layer. I think we were 30mins later to ride so catching you up was quite good.
I knew that repair would get back to the car.
What version of the 661 pads are they mate..?
Anyway, wa good to meet you all, even though very short but you seemed a good bunch and very friendly..!
Mark and Nadine.

Good ride ta folks. Loved doing the second bit of black twice and JJ's four times.  What a bike that was today, absolutely awesome on the downs, hard to believe it's the same bike as mine. Jus took the news that I'd bust it pretty well bless im. ;D Good job I had my extensive spares kit with me out on the trail to enable me to limp home eh. ;D |

Oggy,
You should see my thigh it looks like a baloon mate ;D.
Mark,
There the Kylie Strait knee guards, although medium's are a bit on the large size but comfortable to ride in they do get a little hot on the knees though.
