  • If yo want to organise a trip over Cannock, there's a race over in the specialist events area by stile cop on the 24th Jan. It's run by the Racers Guild so you can make your way over there. You can ask someone where it is if you dont now where it is. So you can try your bike there. Hope this helps.

    Nice choice! Do you mind me asking what you paid for it? it's a sort of weird bike, you'd think it'd be a pimped Kraken but it's actually a de-pimped Fury. Odd way to name a bike, but the Fury frame is better than the Kraken so it works out well. It should do you proud though, and very upgradable too (a better fork in it, Tora 318 or similiar, will really unlock its potential if you choose that route down the line, it's fine as it is but it's got the ability to be great)

    Enjoy it 8)
