if it gets repaired those parts will be a lot stronger than the rest so will therefore put a lot of pressure on the other parts and therefore just mean it would break again in a couple of weeks time Frown ... although it does give me an excuse to get a five Wink

That's the impression I had of BPW, alright, but I still prefer Ffestiniog. Although I wish they had more tracks.

When we were at BPW with a friend, weather was splendid, but the tracks were pretty knackered ... Not to mention that no matter how carefully we checked the website, we just couldn't get day passes for the uplifts ... had to friggin queue at the vans ...


Other than that, some of the tracks were reaaally fun, some other just not my cup of tea... Can't wait for May when we're going back up there!!

I still really enjoyed it, but would be so much better if it didn't have the all weather surface to the tracks. I know it would require more maintenance but would deffo improve it.
