 So it looks like there's only me that can make it and the weather is looking a bit dodgy! I might just head for a spin somewhere more local on Sunday. Anyone got any ideas?
Also gonna head up Ambergate tomorrow afternoon/evening if anyone's aboutSmile

 I'd absolutely love to mate, I'd need a kind soul to give me a lift tho :-/ more than more than more than happy to pay towards fuel if anyone has space? Totally understand if not tho need to get my arse in gear and learn!

 Evening dude. I have a mate who lives in Nottingham who might be going, which would be cool. Otherwise, I can give you a liftSmile
I'll see what I can arrange! Also, do you have a trail bike coz that climb is not something you want to do on your dh rig!!

 Nice one man I don't want to burden anyone like but be a good days riding altgough i thought it would it was a dh orientated day, might put me out of it then to be fair, although iv been riding the bitch to work and back every day or a year now so could just grab the bull by the horns, put my seat up and peddle my legs off ha ha

 IT's s strange set up there; the trails are all pointing down the hill but everyone I was with thinks a full DH rig is overkill for most of them. There are some huge jumps on the black runs but other than that the trails are cool on a long travel trail bike.
If you're not on the uplift, the pedal up is a bugger-it's three miles all uphill! To be fair, you'd probably get up there as quick as me on your dh rig coz I'm very unfit! So you're welcome to a lift if you do want to go but no worries if not, we'll have to wait until there is space on the uplift!

 Yeh iv watched a few videos from there everyone does seem to be on these 'enduro' type machines, ha ha i seriously dout id be able to keep up mate to be honest, and id hate to piss everyone off by being at the back all the while. might be a good training run though as im riding newcastle to Edinburgh the weekend after, not on the demo like but still.. il let you know mate, are you up ambergate or anything saturday? you too keef and huggy?
