    DanielleT: we normal meet at the top near the entrance where the bike path starts . Click Here and switch to Satellite

    Rory T = You not joining us, if you need a rear wheel you can borrow the one off my hardtail.

    2pm is fine however, it's market day in Humber carpark (1st sunday of every month) it finishes a 12pm -1pm and packs away and is gone fairly quick. I just think 2:30 - 3 might be better for those coming in cars, saying that I have been through just after 1 and you wouldn't have know it had been on.

    after 1pm it starts to get quite again just want to make sure you can get parked up ok, I would say 2:30pm just to be a cautious, by 3pm it will be back like normal .

    Altern, I'll bring that rear mech for you, should be able to use cage a screws.

    don't worry, my bike only just gets in the back off my Pug 306, and thats with the back seats down and the front wheel off it! Its even funnier when my friend Alex and I go biking in his tiny VW Lupo. :?

    Aye, thats the one. I could problery find you a link to the headcam vid of them going down it tooo. Best going up from the looks of it, better then trying to get up from Ingleby upto Ingleby Bank, its pretty steep. Might as well go down the bank and up the incline!

    while I was out riding today I kept looking at my forks thinking they don't look 160mm travel anyway just had another look and twisted the TALAS dial and then slap my forehead.

    Sometimes I think my stupidity is only surpassed by my ability to crash.
