Lets get this back on topic guys!
Who did the Amberly trail ride? if you didn’t- dam did you mist a bloody good ride!!!!
Weather was perfect - even Mr wippy turned up !!! would have been at least 300+ bikes easy..
Apart from the abomination of scrutineering …I mean, one guy at 9.30?…you got be joking….at this point the wild map was selected…..fan came on and I new the bike was getting hot…had nothing to do with the rather attractive girl sitting in front on me….long brown hair…..dirt bike……long brown hair ……dirt bike…..I found myself in some kind of a trance - before I new it, I felt a rod up the pipe and a tap on the shoulder and I was done…..I mean gone…..…third…Jesus watch the trees…forth……corner…turn……nothing but sunshine!
yes it was open….but the forestry sections were something else…..I think in some ways better than dalethorpe….we had a bloody ball…
We managed 3 full laps- including the two Enduro sections…first one was nothing to be worried about - the second was a little more challenging, but again nothing to extreme.
Over the past few years - Jesus I’ve got myself in a few predicaments….absolutely exhausted…...whistling down hills out of control….stuck in shitty bogs giving the bike arseholes….shoot me now -take the fecking bike- I didn’t want it - I’m done…..we all have our war stories…….and we all get tired…and with that self dealt creeps in.
But what I found is I’m now looking at the enduro sections and thinking……I can do this….I really think confidence plays a major part….and with that comes a big gain in your technique. But without giving it ago…you’ll never know….because you didn’t develop the skills in the first place! I mean anyone can go fast, its just a matter of twisting the throttle….so the next time you see some blue arrows…think to ya self - I can do this..!!!!!!

Life…you get one shot…take it.
