Yup - booked up for the next 3 Saturday, can do 3rd October.
Conditions in there are perfect at the mo - the trails are so dry and fast. But don't tell anyone0 -
Roger old chap, I prefer not to as I see mates that day and sleep in more than normal, but for you a old BMer I might make a exception if you can make it early am!!
Thanks dudes, was fun in a scared can't ride for pizza kinda way, Mounty better be atleast 10,000ft of climbing on that ride or I won't be happy

its probably just as easy for me to come to you as i'll be at my gf' the other side of the bridge so i was just going to fly down the switchback and up long bank. plus the traffic is better headding towards moggy after from your way i think.0 -

We're looking at 24th October - holidays and stuff in between, and it's dependent on what the conditions are like, one lad doesn't do mud.0 -

8 am from the duke tomorrow.Crashing hard since 94...0
-
Did you only do 1 lap Mounty thats just sad when you get back to the main fireroad after the new black section, you can head up that and come back down again, it's not to far for future reference.
Roger, surviving I've got to do the Malverns again some day to, been to long, dunno when I'm free though got a weekend near Leeds being planned around then.0 -
Sorry Mick, only just picked up the thread....I will be getting ready shortly...
Turvey38......yes only one lap, poor old reaper suffered a little bit and to be honest I was still knackered from the CYB trip....gping out in a bit for a gentle ride to stretch the legs...0 -
Off over to the Chase this Friday afternoon.....if anyone is around for a ride......?0
-
Anyone up for a night ride this wednesday. Leaving from the duke william at 7.00pm. Chance to try out those new lights properley. I have 1 light i can lend out if anyone fancies giving it a go too.
Chris0 -
Yeah, I should be around Wed night for a ride, if I can find my old lights...
Just back from a good ride in the Wyre, very fast and dry!0 -
Moggy, Wednesday should be good for me, might have recieved my 280lumen more spotty cheap lights to try out to0

MP, ecckksss sounds bad, let hope its not that long.
Chase doesn't really work for me, got a mate who's a local who's given me the tour 100's of times but prefer the Wyre and Clent!!0 -

I go a tag-along and/or a baby seat you can borrow!!0 -
Interesting plan, 1 year old in the rucksack and 6year old on the tag-along sorted!!
Don't think the mom would be very happy though she'd nag so no change there and wouldn't let me baby sit ever again, not really seeing any down sides
Those torches are quite good for the money £12 each, blue colour slightly which I prefer, really bright hot spot so ideal for helmet mounting, do need there heat sinking improves with some Alu foil though!! Big MC-E moved to the bars, P7 D SXO on order0 -
Which one you go for SF15 or SF23, i got a 15, its really floody, but the brightest light i own according to the light meter! Ordered another MCe to replace the broken one. The broken one has been given to the lady for now. We'll see how long it lasts.
Still up for tonight mounty?0
