I'd like to ride tomorrow night. Not sure if I can make six or not though due to work (might have to start doing overtime) so I'll text Mike when I know for sure. Will also get myself signed up to that group an all. Don't think I can make the next meeting though as it's the day before I'm off to 'Nam.

Good photo's Riche, hows the massive war wounds healing up? Can you walk yet?

Bowed to peer pressure and went to A&E today, had x-ray done and no bones broken, swelling should go down in about another 2 weeks... Last time I leave my car keys in my pocket when falling off :-p

But have to admit, I make falling off look easy ;-)

Mates race I would be up for it when I can ride again, make mine a cidre.:)

I won't be out tomorrow guys sorry doing O/T. Ah drat I totally forgot about the meet sorry fellas :oops: I was planning on coming and even got a pass from the mrs. Hopefully be there next time. Was anything put on SW3?

Hi rickin. New riders always welcome, I don't get out with the boys as often as I'd like (not only because I don't have any lights for night riding :x but sure we'll have a ride some time soon. Are you a downhill fan? Few of us do the Y Mynydd Cwmcarn uplift and it's becoming quite regular, might be something to entertain for you?

See you soon.

Take it easy guys, hope to see you all soon

great idea 8) .

the route i have in mind takes us through some private woods so i'll have to speak to them first anyway to see if it's OK, they don't mind me riding there but a load of us hammering through they may not like

Few vids below and a mash up of the full run that you can make out of the routes. Vids don't show how steep/loose some of the terrain is up there!

To make it worse, Tinks, AKA Andrew Taylor, chairman of our new club Halfway Up mtb club rode with her and Jay Hoots at Cwmcarn and Wyllie. Checkout Ride Guide at Wales latest.

On the Mates race, we WILL be doing one very shortly.
Venue very local. Again checkout club sute for tentative details. Will be in the range of around 3-5 miles long with as little climbing as possible, various routes being looked at.

Yup, its bloody brilliant.
It comes with a goggle mount and a sticky mount, but you have to buy the vented helmet mount.

However if you want chesty cam, you should go for a GoPro.

Highly recommended though. You get access to the Contour website, which streams videos at full 60fps (youtube doesn't do this!).
