    Only playing - Look out for the tall lanky streak of P*ss with the oversized black full face helmet. That will be me!

    I actually think my 4 year old HT is better than my full sus, though that could be that i`ve riden it so much i`m gene coded into it !!

    If you miss it, you probably shouldn't be out on your own anyway. It's right at the main entrance and huge.

    Bit of fun around Swinley today. Nice to meet a whole lot of new people.
    Best bit was undoubtedly the pump track where all of the low parts had big muddy puddles.
    Whose bright idea was that? Laughed all the way down.

    Suggest we merge you guys with London Calling seeing as SH and Swinley are regular rides.

    Thanks for everyone that turned out today, was good fun. Nice to meet all of you and put faces to the names.

    No major offs so that was good - a pack of 8 was actually more than I was expecting!

    Cheers for Torgey & T0pc4t for letting me have a quick burn on your bikes!

    the pump track was the wet bit then?

    Great crack today guys, big up to Toby for organising and leading us around for the most,
    I was a bit apprehensive about meeting 7 total strangers who were probably more accomplished than me but thanks one and all.

    That was me Ollie !

    And i think the pump track was your idea Cooldad !

    Good day. Aside from having bust my toe up a bit. Wasn't too painful on the bike but walking is pretty bad. Popped into the walk in centre and they packed me off to A&E for an x-ray. 3 hours later, nothing broken. Just swollen up big time. Nice.

    Might not be out next week then, have to see.

    Poor DKenny, guess I should have filmed it. Hope will replace DKenny's spot on group rides from now on.

    I'll choose not put too much stake into someone's opinion who is admittingly terrible though

    Or just lend him one of your toes.
    @DK bad luck, sure it will be sorted soon, you have a few spares anyway.
