love to fragy but saving my pennies at the moment for a new bike :madman:

summer 2008 will be about the best i can make it.:thumbsup:

do you hit the dh track when there and i have seen a video for the black run

which looks tempting.

fragy · Oct 12, 2007

yes konut, we go for the uplift day so we ride the DH tracks and use a trailer to shuttle back to the top, get 10 full runs for £20. Great day out. Stay in touch.

fragy is that grimsby down by lincoln.

went to lincoln when we were on hols in skegness,lincoln such a beautiful place,and some pretty steep streets make a goodish street race.

and you are added to my buddy list.

Yep Grimsby is on the east coast South of the humber, takes me about 2 hours to get to hamsterly. Dont know much about the buddy list thing but will put you on mine. Tapping away on the posts is about as much as i know about forum rules etc.

Fragy, I used to live in Thorne near Doncaster/Goole, we used to go to Grimsby for a day on the ale occasionally.

Hello Konut. Bunch of us went to Lincoln Engine Shed a couple of weeks ago to see The Stranglers.
You are right about the street race but Lincoln plod have just had a crackdown on cyclists in the town. If it's any consolation my mrs slid down the cobbled bit at the top of the hill on her arse last summer, laugh, I nearly got a round in!!!

konut · Oct 13, 2007

your poor wife but its funny,amazed at how steep the streets actually were.

best laugh for us was the court in the centre of a tourist attraction.

Funnily enough I worked on the Waterside shopping centre there years ago, Prince Charlie was due to officially open the place. Two days before there was a proper summer storm. The floor of the atrium was flooded and the strip flooring all came bouncing up. Doesn,t sound that funny but I fing hated that job

Dude, you should come ride with the Dundee uni guys. You've got dunkeld, kinnoull, falkland all within 45 min drive. Were the st andrews guys at BUSA last year?

Jedi, i seem to see you on a lot of other forums, when are you gonna come up to the trailblazerz.

Ace1 · Oct 19, 2007

Hey man, I used to ride to ride at Blandford Freeride Park (as it was then called - now mtb-freeride park) before I moved to London. I'll no doubt be back riding there in the summer.

jedi · Oct 19, 2007
