I think that is for when Conor collects him.

I'll be out from 10 or so if anyone is down early.

[Conor]

It's a 30min drive from Jame's house to Rostrevor!

Remind me to bring that air shock for you!!

Doing uplifts? Car can take a few bikes and four people.

[Bloom]

We'll see what cars turn up but we should probably do at least 1 run to the top car park regardless.

[baz]

Remind me to bring that air shock for you!!Bring that air can for me, please. I may end up buying it myself!

Anyone need a lift from belfast? I can definitely take me +1, maybe +2, particularly if you have a thule bike holder.

[Simon_M]

Baz i will bring those things for you.

How about all 3 of us in one car? Save the planet and all that...

[jimjam]

**** the planet. I'll take both of ye no problem though. Only issue would be if some ones bike breaks early in the day or get injured (touches wood) someone could be sitting around all day. Catch my drift essay?

[marko]

yes, my hardtail might even be fixed

[baz]

Oh, and lift sounds cool, by the way. Need any bike carrying/holding or is the back of your truck sorted?

[jimjam]

If you want to bring something along to beef up security fill your boots sur. Reckon I'll get about 4 in anyway.

[PeteMcD]

That's a maybe from me....

[jimjam]

Most likely will.

[PeteMcD]

Most likely will.

Your girlfriend most likely will let you? Oh, you mean uplifts... ;)

Consider my status raised from maybe to possibly....

[jimjam]

Yes Im allowed to come and play.


Consider my status raised from maybe to possibly

What more incentive do you need? Do you want to ride shotgun?

[PeteMcD]

What more incentive do you need? Do you want to ride shotgun?

If you're offering?? I'd be a fool to refuse.

I need to make sure my legs work tomorrow. Some days they do, and some days they don't. Its very frustrating. If they do, I'll be there...possibly.

Yeah, I'll be having a few beers tonight too. Either heineken export or spatten octoberfest.

Well the rules are you have to call it, also the vehicle in question has to be in plain sight when said call is made. Thats our rules anyway.

[PeteMcD]

Rules noted. Assault plan being detailed over lunch.

[jimjam]

Sorry lads, came off up at ht last night and busted my thumb up pretty bad. Its just aggravated an existing injury. Im f***ed off to miss a good days riding over one digit but gripping the bars is agony. Hope you have a good day.

[gaulty]

texted me for directions to the DT when he was up there ,2+2=?

sorry to hear that JJ, you can join me on the bench for the next week or two:rolleyes:

[marko]

amazing days riding, that jump was 24inch not 25!!! ;)

[PeteMcD]

Bleh, annoyed I missed it. Back isn't up to it just quite yet.

[Conor]

Wait 'till you see the vids and pics!!!

[Speedfreak]

Yep, sum class footage taken! WHIPPAGE!!!!!! lol :D

[baz]

Great day, cheers lads. Excellent pics and vid, and most importantly, trails. Hopefully do it again soon. Ideally just after the chair lift is installed!

[tinkerhil]

Im in talks with the FS over the chair lift at the mo;)
Great days riding and well empressed with the guys hittin the 24 inch jump:D

[jimjam]

where you crash?

Im not sure, its a trail with 2 small drops on it followed by a fairly big double with a slightly off camber landing into a corner which opens out a bit by some gravel with a nice wee booter and then fizzles out down some tight corners with some ferns.

Anyway I crashed on the first small 'dirt' jump. Was sessioning it to try and carry speed on it, just trying too hard, pulled up on the take off, slammed the forks down couldnt make the corner so I "decided" to flip over the bars as opposed to hit a tree. At least im getting some practice break falling before I go back to ju jitsu :rolleyes:
