Got sidetracked by youtube again lol

sparrowlegs78

yup those re on the black downhill route, currently off limits due to re surfacing though, should be done soon though

rottitera02

Just read the comments under that vid and apparently you can get to them berms off the red run and go in a loop, woudn;t mind trying 'em......

Am i mad !!!!!!!!

sparrowlegs78

Yeah, you get on to them off the red run, it's a link run, the red run it's self goes past the top of those berms and runs down to the bottom of the valley to meet up with the bottom of the black run.
You could easily push back up the red run back to the top of the back to do it again.
There is a blue run that all the runs merge onto getting back to the carpark whicj you can get back onto to do it several times and I can higghly recommend the blue run back to the car park, it's a bermfest of fun

Just been watching that YouTube vid of Gisburn and all I saw was the sign at the start that says Skill, Full Face Helmet and Body Armour needed to ride here.

Bollocks.

less than a week to go )

Gisburn stuff looks good. I'd be up for that if I can talk nicely to the missus

Bollocks it is.You could ride all of Gisburn on a rigid.When we were there at the slab bit one of us was on a HT and someone said "you're going down that on a HT" its a slab of rock..HT,FS Rigid it makes no difference..its a slab of rock :roll:
It's a trail centre,i:e designed to be ridden by all abilities so the "full face and armour" sign is just to cover them in this ever increasing "had an accident?sue the b*****ds" world we live in.

Lads in my LBS used to say that if you're not falling off, you're not trying hard enough.

A SLOW RIDES 2011 CHARITY CHALLENGE......?

Have a look at this.....

http://www.clic24.org.uk/section.php?xSec=2

no way I could do this year's event, but would anyone be up for this in 2011...? This would be my first endurance event and the team entry looks appealing.
