    Hi Dyl,

    Yes thanks Sarah and I had a fine time. It was my 1st time in there for about 2 years and i was amazed at how much of it seemed vaguely familiar. we did the camber, pepsi max, jedi and secret garden i think??? as well as a few other parts

    We managed to get back to the car park about 9:45 just as it began to rain. my bike is still filthy so i'll need to give it a clean before cannock on sunday with the hombres.

    Thanks again Sarah - look for ward to seeing you again in a fortnight.

    Cheers, Marc

    I don't know why you lot say the Malverns are boring, okay I had a dog and a couple ruin 1 descent even at 00:00 :) yep new bike syndrome :)

    Bikes growing on me, I can sprint up hills like my rigid very efficient rear end and it's very controlled on the descents, no falling through it's travel or anything really.

    If your going to do trail centre Saturday, then wouldn't taking a day off be advisable ? We could go back up the fire road and do the main good stuff again then, make the drive more worthy ??

    Riding, Wednesday, Thursday with Dave maybe so I'd die if I tried, maybe Friday will see if New Bike Syndromes worn off yet.

    I feel a no stop Saturday coming on then :)

    And yes I am your dad, I went back in time and knocked your mother up just to cruel, surprise.

    Miss G is doing the Wyre, we are doing Clent so I don't see how my speed could affect her 10+ miles away :)

    Anyone is free to join us! Hopefully a pretty quick ride, if i can manage it! Meet 7:00pm Adams hill! (Ready to ride) No lights required!

    Roger Rogue - I'll be there on the 26th to guide you round. Can't remember if we've made arrangements so shall we say - 10am at the Duke William Pub (parking free) or in the Visitors Centre (need to pay for parking) or in a layby by turning off the main road towards Little Lakes about 100m before the Visitors Centre? There are loos and a cafe at the Visitors Centre and the usual facilities at the pub! I'll be riding to the meet point so am flexible with time and location. How long do you want to ride for so I can plan a route?

    A Clent ride will be easier for your then BadFlaw, where abouts in Brum big place, maybe there is someone else near you for a lift.



    Mate in Sheffield left his bike in the back garden for 10mins unattended and GONE, you can not be paranoid enough.
