Surrey or Swinley are fine with me, you guys can decide between yourselves. Andy has secured the car so we can meet you there, just name your time Russ.
I've told my boss i won't be in and haven't had any objections so i'm good to go 8)0 -
Surry it is then. Funnily enough i was just about to suggest Surry after watching some Leith Hill vids on You Tube
Shall we park at the bottom of Telegraph again? I am easy on time so whatever is good for you Russ. 0 -

Man those guys are fast! who are they? 0 -
Are you suggesting i unclip too readily Russ?! Yeah think you might have a point...
I couldn't make out who those guys were as they were just a blur 0 -
Right, i'm bringing the pads! Realy looking forward to this guy's, should be a bloody good laugh. Hope it's as dry as in those vids.
What time shall we meet up? Nick, do you remember the way to the car park, or shall we meet somewhere else and drive there togather?0 -
We will arrange the time nearer that date, we can meet either on route or there.
This one is for Ade,
Beat my connection speed:

Is that 72mbps :shock: I take it your still on nights then. How the hell do they get that speed when the rest of the country is stuck on 16mbps max. I'm on 8mb but can only get 6.4 :evil:RussAlf wrote:We will arrange the time nearer that date, we can meet either on route or there.

I assume its just the same as youtube, however for some reason I don't seem to be able to access it at work 0 -
So who's riding on the Kent-trails ride tonight? Andy, I take it you're going. I'll meet you up there. I'll be on the HT as the Meta is having some TLC courtesy of Downland Cycles and I doubt it'll be back by tonight.
Nick? From what I've read on these last few pages you're a bit of a speed demon (even if you and your bike often part company )

I know I know... Its a regular Thursday thing. I'm not proud of itlost-time wrote:Football? :roll: oh well.
Really want to come along to another Kent Trails ride soon but my weekends are looking horrendous until the end of October. Hopefully something will fall through and i'll make it along before then 0 -

Hey guy's, just started xc after 8 years of trials! I've been to bedgebury a few times and enjoyed it. I've looked into swinley forest as mentioned in this thread and it looks really good, is it worth a 1 hour 20 min drive? thanks-Hugh0
