    Ta - think I'll wait for FoD to dry up a bit before I go.

    My session at FoD tonight was spent conquering my fear of wet roots! Still a bit nervy but getting quicker, need to practice the jumps on the new rig, seem to be landing heavier than normal!

    Good to meet welshkev, I can confirm he does actually ride a bike!

    My first ever downhill experience (at FoD) involved falling off on a big rooty section on Sheepskull - a few times :) Just sick of bleedin' rain so if I can escape next week it'll be CC for me as it seems to drain like it's coated in teflon - last 2 times I went it tipped down the night before (and in the morning) but the course was fine. Then I can practice getting a bit more air and staying off the anchors more - which are my biggest wimp outs right now!

    yeah, good to meet a fellow crudite and put a face to a name :D

    i can also confirm that kaise rides a bike, but we were both outside the cafe at the time so maybe we just drove there and had a cup of tea without riding :lol:
