    Fallouts about right tbh. Can play on the FR section the first time round or second (prob best 1st as you'll still be fresh) the climb is pretty intense out of the car park but once you're at the top it's all fun and games.. and some even enjoy the climb :shock: (you know who you are)

    Enjoy

    Think me an my hardtail will sit out your DH session :)

    Am about next week though if you guys doing something a bit more XC-ish.

    Did a 45km charity ride on sat up Llanwonno way, sadly not much in the way of nice singletrack up there, but for a good cause an all that, even if it did cost me 30 notes for a new chain after the grit and puddles destroyed mine.

    Hi all, a handful of us are going up to Afan on Saturday attempting to ride w2, skyline and then whites in one day. We were previously doing the 100k Macmillan monster then but it got cancelled so as it was all arranged and people had booked accommodation etc we're making our own 100k(ish) out of that lot.

    All are welcome to join us for all or some of it, beer and bbq in Glyncorrwg campsite after too.

    Sweet Daz, guessing you won't have the Cruz though?

    Cheers Danny, sounds like an epic ride and a great weekend. I'm sure some of the glutons on here would be more than up for that, think it's exactly what a few of us have been up for right about me. Me; well if Ben comes out to do 100km on the Torque I'll do it on the heavy Hanzz :lol:

    Have a good one if I don't join.

    See the rest of you douche bags tomorrow :D

    cheers ben and daz

    thanks for the run out, but i'm sure as hell not a DH rider :lol:

    james, where'd you go? tried calling you and didn't see you on the way up...or down :lol:
  • Ahh Kev, you shoulda stayed fella!

    Good to see you though mate, its been a while!


    Cheers Daz and James, i'm itching all over from all those fecking midges though... aarrrgghhh!

    Sorry Kev, I got there and assumed you'd all ridden to the top so I hoofed it up there :lol: :oops: was hoping to catch you before you went, hopefully I'll catch up with you soon..

    Cheers Ben and Daz, another great session and Bens Torque looks very 8) stunning colours and spec..

    Will be interesting to see the GoPro and pics, I may have even left the floor at points..

    400lb spring works really nicely for DH, not sure it would be correct for XC though, goes up and down more than forward..

    Way I look at it is there's plenty 'o' time to improve, not going to be Atherton overnight so no worries. Cheers for posting the pics Daz, good of you to take the time to post them up. Can't wait to see the vids..
