    I want to test the Lappy Zesty 514 2010 at Bedgebury, but you're only allowed 45 mins. I can complete a whole 3 sections of singletrack before having to turn back in that time!

    Last year at Cannock they set up a short loop so you got back in time!

    On the glentress demos you can ride a fair bit of nice trail- freeride park, pennel's vennel, zoom or bust or crank up and do as much red as you can, then arrive back at the tent 10 minutes late and shaking with exhaustion :lol: 45 minutes isn't long but if you cane it you can do a fair amount with it. it's enough time to fall hopelessly in love with a bike and never feel happy riding your own ever again...

    I'm trying to book a Zesty, X Control and Scott Genius 20, it's all a bit broken at the moment though.

    Yeah, got the 2 Lapierres booked 11-12:30, then 45 mins to refuel at the cafe, then 2 Scotts (Genius and Spark 20) in the afternoon.

    Should be good to ride a "good FS" (isn't that right Sheepsteeth!). I'll probably bring my bike too, for a lap of the dog afterwards, should be a decent FS vs HT comparison. Hopefully it won't make me think that the carbon Blur XC is a good idea, because that's also an expensive idea! :oops:

    I accidentally booked the Zesty L last year, not knowing that L stands for Lady :lol: But it was still ace, and I got to have a longer go because it wasn't fully booked.
