    It's going to a sunny ride on Saturday at Thorndon 9am meeting at the kart track/ski slope car park. :D

    Trails will be quick with only the odd spot of muck.

    Roll call.

    Yeah, I do, the sintered ones. I've been impressed but then pads are pads really. You use them for a whie then they wear out. Certainly the cheapest out there and you get a free pack of haribo with every order.

    I like that bit of downhillness. Esp at that speed. I normally go along the A127 until the Halfway House, laugh at all the doggers, then go back to Thorndon North via Thorndon South.
